A new coronavirus, most likely spilled over from an animal species,
has plunged us into the third epidemic of this kind in the last
twenty years, against which there were neither vaccines nor
therapies.While we argue over the future of humanity, vulnerable to
the ecological and environmental degradation that has enabled the
pandemic, extraordinary technologies have been developed to combat
infectious diseases. In just eleven months it was possible to
develop, test and produce the vaccines that are gradually enabling
us to escape the SARS-CoV-2 nightmare. In addition, with the legacy
of the technologies developed against COVID-19, we will be able to
overcome antimicrobial resistance-a slow but inexorable pandemic.As
vaccinologists are churning out increasingly precise and effective
solutions, vaccine acceptance seems to be receding. Outbreaks of
preventable diseases have prompted the health authorities of
several countries to make childhood vaccinations mandatory again.
Much remains to be done, but a public capable of distinguishing
authoritative voices from misleading ones will be able to enjoy the
vaccines of tomorrow more widely. Vaccines in the Global Era is an
easy-to-read book that can be read by virtually anyone who wants to
learn about the importance, effectiveness and safety of vaccines in
preventing infectious diseases.Vaccines are cheap, save countless
lives, and are more effective than the best medicines. Let's try to
make the best use of them for the health of the people and animals
living together on this beautiful planet.
