profound an effect on reducing mortality from childhood

History and Overview
Many infectious diseases are only
a plane ride away.
Herd Immunity
When a great proportion of the community is immunized against a
contagious disease, most members of the community are protected
against the disease because the opportunity for an outbreak is small.
Immunizations and Infectious Diseases
Each birth cohort vaccinated:
Saves 33,000 lives.
Prevents 14 million cases of disease.
Reduces direct health care costs by $9.9 billion.
Saves $33.4 billion in indirect costs.
Despite Progress:
42,000 adults
300 children
