VACCINES – A REVOLUTION IN MEDICINE
“Immunization is a success story for public health. The lives of millions of children have been saved, and millions of people have had the opportunity to live healthier lives, to study, to play, to read and write better, and to move freely without suffering from physical disabilities.”
Indeed, vaccination helps prevent the spread of infectious diseases, and many people, including both children and adults, have been able to build a protective barrier, safeguarding their lives from the risk of death or illness. There are currently nearly 30 infectious diseases that can be prevented through vaccines. About 85%–95% of vaccinated individuals will develop specific immunity that protects the body from disease. Vaccinated individuals do not contract the disease and, as a result, will not die or suffer sequelae caused by the disease. Thanks to vaccines, around 2.5 million children worldwide are saved from death due to infectious diseases every year. Vaccines and immunization play an important role in achieving the United Nations Millennium Development Goal of reducing under-5 child mortality worldwide.
