Kiøbenhavn, Schultz, 1810. 4to. Brunplettet og gennemgående vandskjold. 11, (1) pp. I begyndelsen af 1800-tallet blev Danmark ramt af en række koppeepidemier. Det fik i 1810 Frederik 6. og Danske Kancelli til, sammen med Vaccinationskommissionen, at udarbejde Forordning for Danmark og Norge ang. Vaccinationen, der pålagde borgerne at blive vaccineret mod kopper. Forordningen kunne ikke tvinge folk til at blive vaccineret, men en forudsætning for f.eks. konfirmation, giftermål, skolegang, læreplads og militærtjeneste var, at man kunne dokumentere, at man have overvundet en koppesygdom eller gennemgået vaccinationen. Gennem denne vaccinationsattest, som er gengivet nedenfor efter selve lovteksten, var der altså indirekte tale om tvang.
