The conditions, circumstances and aftermath of the stay of the Balmis’ Royal Vaccinal Expedition (1803-1806) in the Canary Islands have been studied in this paper. We have focused on reports from canary witnesses rather than official and administrative data. We have records of the spreading of the vaccine out to the isles. Finally, the decisive and determinant part played by the Roman Catholic Church to achieve the objectives of the Royal Expedition has been remarked.
