Sponsored by: Applied Biosystems and Pacific
Northwest National Laboratory
Two of the most important contributions of biomedical
science to public health in the 20th century were the
eradication of smallpox and the almost complete elimination
of poliomyelitis through vaccines. At the beginning
of the 21st century, there is hope that vaccines can
be developed against some other major diseases including
non-infectious diseases such as cancer. But along with
this potential, vaccination is also becoming more controversial.
How can vaccines be distributed effectively to developing
countries? Why has it not been possible to develop an
effective vaccine against AIDS? Against malaria? Are
there side effects of vaccination which can lead to
other illnesses? Vaccines have been so effective against
infectious diseases that, in the western hemisphere,
the public has little memory of the devastating effects
of diseases such as polio or measles. The incredible
successes of vaccination against infectious diseases
in the developed world will be discussed, but also contrasted
with the continued presence of these diseases in the
developing world and with the perception in many developed
countries that vaccines are not safe and pose a threat.
