Vaccination, ill effects of.

Characteristics——According to Jenner, the origin of cow-pox is infection of the udders of cows

by contact with grass on which a horse infected with "Grease" has trodden. This assertion is to

some extent confirmed by the experience of homsopaths, who have found in Maland. a very

effectual protection against infection with small-pox and against vaccination. Straube made

  • provings of the 30th potency (H.
  • R.
  • , xv.
  • 145; H.
  • W.
  • , xxxv.
  • 504).
  • It has been used on inferential

grounds with great success in ill effects of vaccination (I have cured with it cases of unhealthy,

dry, rough skin remaining for years after vaccination); in small-pox, measles, and impetigo.

Burnett has cured with it a case of knock-knee in a child who was constantly handling his penis.

Burnett's indications are: "Lower half of body; greasy skin and greasy eruption. Slow

pustulation, never ending, as one heals another appears." Impetigo, ecthyma, fat, greasy-looking

  • pustular eruptions are particularly acted on by this remedy.

vaccinated himself, taking at the same time Mal/and. 30 night and morning. The vaccination did

not take. It was twice repeated and still did not take; nor was smallpox contracted. Called to

vaccinate four children in a family whose parents were recovering from small-pox, he vaccinated

all and gave Maland. 30 to three of them at the same time; the remaining child was the only one

whose vaccination "took." This was so severe that Maland. had to be given to modify its

intensity, which it did effectually. The other three were re-vaccinated but none "took." Of five

children, from six to seventeen years of age, only the eldest had been vaccinated, and he had a

good scar. All except the eldest were given Maland. and were vaccinated, and none of the four

  • "took.
  • " The eldest took small-pox.
  • Maland.
  • was then given, and in a few days he was

convalescent. In another case of small-pox Maland. was given, and the disease only lasted a few

days, the eruption drying up. In Straube's proving the symptoms were < in evening. The Schema

is made up of Straube's symptoms. Burnett considers Maland. a very deeply acting remedy, and

one not to be repeated oftener than once a fortnight.
