Vaccination comes from the word "vacca", which means cow. Around the year 1800 the English doctor Edward Jenner discovered that some milkmaids in his locality did not get smallpox The girls who had had cowpox and were protected from the illness. The girls also did not get scarred by the cowpox and so Jenner became the first to administer systematic vaccinations. The first to vaccinate in Denmark, was doctor [https://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederik_Christian_Winsl%C3%B8w Frederik Christian Winsløw] in Copenhagen. That was in 1801, he got vaccine direct from Jenner. There had been some attempts at vaccination before, but not systematically. For example, the doctor for King Christian the Seventh, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Friedrich_Struensee Johann Friedrich Struensee], inoculated the King's son who would later be known as Frederick the Sixth and a small medal commemorating the event was struck.
