[++] "The Vaccination Act 1853 (and I imagine via the earlier act of 1840) made it compulsory for all children born after 1 August 1853 to be vaccinated against smallpox during their first 3 months of life. Parents who failed to get their children vaccinated would be subject to a fine. By the 1860s, two-thirds of babies were vaccinated. "The 1853 Vaccination Act, which introduced compulsory vaccination to England and Wales, is often seen as the most important single piece of legislation in the control of smallpox in Britain. Both Anthony Wohl and Dorothy Porter stress the wider significance of the act in introducing the general population to state medicine and in heralding other compulsory health measures.¹ Historians and demographers suggest that the 1853 act produced a significant, long-term increase in infant vaccination and point to it as a milestone in the decline of smallpox mortality."--Deborah Brunton, "The Politics of Vaccination: Practice and Policy in England, Wales, Ireland, and Scotland, 1800-1874" in "Rochester Studies in Medical History", vol 11, 2008 (268pp). [++] The Vaccination Act of 1867, also known as the Compulsory Vaccination Act or the Vaccination Extension Act, was a legislation introduced in the United Kingdom. The act made it mandatory for parents to have their infants vaccinated against smallpox within the first three months of their birth. Failure to comply with the law could result in a fine or imprisonment. The Vaccination Act of 1867 aimed to increase vaccination rates and control the spread of smallpox, which was a prevalent and deadly disease at the time. The act established local vaccination officers who were responsible for ensuring compliance and administering vaccines. It also established a system of penalties for non-compliance.Please contact me for full description! Codice articolo ABE-1685025471472
