Abstract:
Childhood immunizations have proven to be tremendously successful in eradicating diseases that have previously been considered to be fatal. Though current immunizations are generally well tolerated, it is important to constantly evaluate existing methods and be amenable to changes when they present. Newer formulations of products have been in development to improve vaccine completion, vaccine efficacy, and protection against emerging diseases. Growing interest in health economics has led to production of new vaccines that promote healthier outcomes in all populations, especially those vulnerable to infectious disease, children.
