Abstract

This article delves onto the state of variolation at the end of the eighteenth century in the General Captaincy of Chile, by studying a smallpox epidemic which affected Concepcion and its surrounding areas. One central question of this study is to what extent variolation might be regarded as the first preventive treatment against smallpox and the role played by the population. It also aims to determine the importance of variolation for both the configuration and acceptance of the notion of immunization by the society of the period. This is because beyond the amount of persons who adopted this practice, its implementation led to an early debate on notions such as prevention and universality. Such notions were fundamental for the development of further measures against smallpox in Chilean society.
淋病接种。18世纪末,智利总督将接种作为预防天花治疗的做法
本文通过研究影响康塞普西翁及其周边地区的天花流行病,深入研究了18世纪末智利总指挥时期的天花流行状况。本研究的一个中心问题是,在多大程度上,天花接种可以被视为对天花的第一次预防性治疗,以及人群所起的作用。它还旨在确定该时期社会对免疫概念的配置和接受的重要性。这是因为除了采取这种做法的人数之外,它的实施还导致了对预防和普遍性等概念的早期辩论。这些观念对智利社会进一步采取措施防治天花至关重要。
