I am a descendant of Benjamin Jesty - a man who had worked out how vaccines work 20 years before Jenner did, but Jesty was hated by the villagers around him, calling his practices un-natural and making their feelings felt whenever Jesty appeared in public.
Possibly because of this hatred, Jesty failed to gain recognition for his work and Jenner later became rich and very, very famous.
Current vaccine inventor Dr. Paul Offit is also hated by a section of the population who believe vaccines are toxic and cause autism and other side effects. Dr. Offit stands by his science - there is no proven link. Wired article.
