AB  - Negative  attitudes  toward  vaccination  are  not  a  recent  phenomenon.  Medical  and  political  leaders  have  had  to  respond  to  these  attitudes  for  hundreds  of  years.  The  precursor  to  smallpox  vaccination,  variolation  with  smallpox  inocula,  was  introduced  from  the  Ottoman  Empire  into  the  United  Kingdom  by  Lady  Mary  Montague  in  the  first  quarter  of  the  eighteenth  century.1  Within  Europe  and  the  New  World,  it  quickly  faced  religious  and  philosophical  objections  suggesting  variolation  countered  God’s  will  in  determining  who  was  sick  and  who  was  healthy.  Pamphlets  produced  by  political  and  religious  leaders,  such  as  Cotton  Mather,  were  important  in  countering  negative  sentiments  and  popularizing  the  spread  of  variolation  in  the  American  colonies.2
