Pasteur's Preventive Treatment of Rabies as Reported in JAMA

Leonard J. Hoenig, MD

Arch Neurol. 1986;43(4):397-399.

Abstract
• Louis Pasteur's vaccine against rabies, introduced 100 years ago, was greeted by the American medical community with a mixture of praise and skepticism. These sentiments as well as details of Pasteur's landmark discoveries appeared in late-19th-century articles in The Journal of the American Medical Association.
