    History faculty members, Dr. Allen Driggers and Dr. Laura Smith and their student, Cheyenne Douthitt, recently had their research, “History, politics, and variolation vaccination hesitancy in the American South during the American Civil War,” published in Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings.

    In their article, the researchers examine how the history of vaccination in the Civil War reveals lessons about why citizens resisted vaccination and how physicians tried to respond to the problems associated with combating epidemic diseases like smallpox.
