cowpoxn.

Forms: Also 1700s–1800s -pocks, with singular -pock.

Etymology: cow n.¹Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈcow-ˌpox.

A vaccine disease which appears on the teats of cows in the form of vesicles (pocks) of a blue or somewhat livid colour. It was established by Dr. Edward Jenner in 1798 that the communication of this to the human subject by vaccine inoculation (vaccination n.) gives immunity (whole or partial) from the attack of smallpox. A single pustule is called a pock n.²; the plural pocks taken as the name of the disease (cf. measles n.), is conventionally spelt pox.
