Vaccinating the Countryside: Fukui Domain

Even in the 1860s, over ten years after the introduction of the vaccine, rural parents in Fukui domain still appeared to be taking their children into town. In part, the failure to penetrate the countryside simply reflected a lack of money and trained doctors. But this spatial concentration also had to do with the time sensitivity of vaccine transmission and the constant need for bodies of unvaccinated children. This pathway explores the spatial and temporal implications of sustaining vaccinations in the countryside through arm-to-arm transmission.
