Vaccines are the greatest public health advancements resulting in the control, elimination, or near-elimination of infectious diseases that were once pervasive. Today, more people are getting benefited as vaccines are safe and efficacious to prevent infectious diseases and provide essential health benefits at all ages, from infants to senior populations. Vaccines are developed, tested, and regulated just like any other drugs but vaccines are more thoroughly tested. Vaccine research and development departments require strong project management systems that require skill sets among scientists and engineers. Any vaccine after getting approved by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) should continue to monitor and examine vaccine safety. Concerns that are discovered later could lead the licensed vaccine to be withdrawn from use, although which is very rare. We are in the new era of vaccine innovation, where we thrive to prevent and treat disease with a special focus on both to prevent and treat disease.
