EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in history when the city of Jersey City, New Jersey, faced a smallpox scare in 1881. In response to the infectious disease outbreak, compulsory vaccination was implemented as a preventive measure. The contemporary American wood engraving showcases the scene on an exterior side walk where a doctor administers the smallpox vaccine to individuals from different walks of life. The image portrays a diverse crowd gathered around, including men and women from the working class, mothers with babies in their arms, and even ragged children barefooted on the street. Amongst them stands an intrigued young girl watching intently as the doctor performs his duty. This powerful visual encapsulates both hope and desperation as people sought protection against this deadly disease that plagued communities worldwide. It reflects society's collective effort to combat smallpox through public health initiatives despite limited resources.
