Vaccines prevent around five premature deaths every minute and given the right conditions for access, effectiveness, innovation, and sustainability, the opportunity to increase the number of lives saved is substantial. Given the massive contribution of vaccination to the public, good International aid and philanthropic donors have injected immense sums of money to make this happen. GAVI will spend over $7 billion and the Global Polio eradication program over 5 million dollars between 2010 and 2015. Whilst this has led to many exceptional achievements, success should not prevent continuous examination of whether we are fully optimising the huge untapped potential of today’s vaccines without damaging the benefit that future vaccination innovation can bring.
Vaccination is a very complex ecosystem and like natural ecosystems, it can be fragile.
