VACCINE
Introduction
Vaccination is a proven and one of the most gainful child endurance interventions. All countries in the world have an immunization program to deliver selected vaccines to the embattled beneficiaries, specially focusing on pregnant women, infants and children, who are at a high risk of diseases preventable by vaccines.
There are at least 27 causative agents against which vaccines are available and many more agents are targeted for expansion of vaccines. The number of antigens in the immunization programmes varies from country to country; however, there are a few selected antigens against diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, poliomyelitis, measles, hepatitis B which are part of immunization programmes in most of the countries in the world.
The first vaccine (small pox) was discovered in 1798. The most arresting success of these efforts has been the abolition of smallpox disease from the planet. Though a proven gainful preventive intervention, the benefits of immunization is not attainment to many children who are at the maximum risk of the diseases preventable by these vaccines. Best part of the children who do not take delivery of these vaccines live in developing countries. As per the recent nation-wide survey data, of the targeted annual cohort of 26 million infants in India, only 61 per cent had received all due vaccines4.
Understandably, the implementation of vaccination programmes and ensures that the reimbursement of vaccines reach to each and every possible beneficiary is a demanding task for the vaccination efforts in the country
The history of vaccines and vaccination starts with the first effort to put off disease in the society Smallpox (like many other infectious diseases including measles) was well recognized since ancient times and supposed to have originated in India or Egypt, over 3,000 years ago. This was subject of observation for many learned minds and physicians such as Thucydides in 430 BC and Rhazes (also known as Abu Bakr) in 910 AD who reported that people affected by smallpox were protected from the future infections.
Abu Bakr distinguishing measles and smallpox in 900 AD. Historians and physicians encompass sometimes referred smallpox as ‘Indian Plague’, which suggest that the disease might be widely prevalent in India in the earlier times.The confirmation indicates that smallpox inoculation was experienced in China in around 1000 AD and in India, Turkey, and probably Africa as well.
The inoculation, ‘the process of injecting an infective agent in a healthy person, which leads to often mild disease and preventing that individual from future serious disease’ was common in India. Inoculation with smallpox virus material called variolation precede smallpox vaccination and was one of the conventional approaches to protect from the disease. Inoculation was widely practiced in India (and later on, even a ban by Bengal Presidency in 1804 had limited effect on the practice).
Smallpox affected all races and all regions of the world, with frequent epidemics and inoculation was practiced in a number of countries in East; however, the practice reached Europe especially in the United Kingdom not before early 18th century.
In 1774 , conducted an experiment with cowpox substance inoculation on his wife and two children and had almost exposed the first smallpox vaccine. Twenty two years later, Edward Jenner made similar surveillance in milk-maids and noticed that a person inoculated with cow-pox virus, would expand a mild cowpox disease, with no grave risks and would be protected from
prospect smallpox infections. Jenner's observation was his discovery of smallpox vaccine. Jenner published his observation in his seminal work titled ‘An enquiry into the causes and effects of Variolae Vaccinae’ in 1798. Soon after Jenner's publication, the smallpox vaccination spread to many parts of the world, especially Europe and America. The smallpox vaccine reached India in 1802 (within 4 years).
History
Vaccines are an essential aspect of medicine; in the developed world, most children must undergo mandatory vaccinations in order to attend school. The average child is protected from diphtheria, hepatitis A and B, influenza, measles, mumps, polio and whooping cough all diseases that were historically so hazardous they could easily wipe out thousands of people.
Most vaccines are created from either destabilized or dead forms of the biological agents of the diseases themselves. Injecting small amounts of dead microorganisms into a person stimulate the opposed to system enough to create antibodies against them and destroy them; this serves as defense from the same microbes later on. Vaccines let the immune system to uphold a record of the disease, which makes it easier to obliterate those threats afterwards.
Vaccines are one of contemporary medicine’s miraculous breakthroughs but they existed hundreds of years earlier in prehistoric forms, referred to today using the term “variolation.” underneath is a brief history of vaccines, from the rumination of ancient physicians to the modern war against Anti-Vaxxers.
