HOW ADVANCES IN MEDICINE BENEFITTED SOCIETY o. Remarkable breakthroughs in medicine, the advances in science and helped prolong human life. o. Edward Jenner had developed a method of preventing smallpox through vaccination, but he didn’t know the scientific principle that made it all work. o. Pastuer produced a vaccine containing weakened anthrax germs. He determined that when weakened germs entered the body, the system builds up a substance called antibodies to fight them. o. Pastuer used the same technique to fight rabies, He injected a vaccine he produced into a boy that got bite by a rabid dog and he survived. o.
