Abstract: | Immunization has long been established as an efficient and effective means of preventing mortality and morbidity of potentially serious infections. Indeed it has been instrumental for the complete elimination of a once-deadly scourge, viz, small- pox. It is envisaged that poliomyelitis will be the next serious infection to be literally eradicated from the face of the earth. And after that, measles will be next on the list, no doubt to be followed by others. Even now, most of the young doctors are unlikely to have to care for a case of measles throughout their career. |
