Milestones in immunization u 3000 BC u Evidence of sniffing powdered small pox crust in Egypt u 2000 BC u Sniffing of small pox crust in China u 1500 BC u Turks introduce variolation u 1700 AD u. Introduction of variolation in England later in the US 2
Introduction of variolation The wife of the British Ambassador in Turkey, in March 1717 wrote, following the variolation of her son, to a friend in England: “The small pox, so fatal, so general amongst us, is entirely harmless here by the invention of ingrafting…. I am patriot enough to bring this invention into fashion in England. 3
Milestones in immunization u 1780 A. D. u Edward Jenner discovers small pox vaccine 4

Edward Jenner Among patients awaiting small pox vaccination 6
Modern era of the vaccine 1885 Rabies vaccine (Pasteur) 1920 s Diphtheria and Tetanus 1934 Pertussis 1955 Salk polio 7
Modern era of the vaccine 1960 s 1985 Mumps measles and rubella virus Sabin polio Haemoph ilus 1990 s Hepatitis and varicella 8
Pre- & post-vaccine incidence of common preventable diseases 9
Different modes of acquiring immunity Immunity Natural Acquired resistance Passive Active Artificial Natural 10
Passive Immunity Natural Placental transfer of Ig. G Colostral transfer of Ig. A Artificial Antibodies or immunoglobulins Immune cells 11
Passive Immunization disease antibody source indication diphtheria, tetanus human, horse prophylaxis, therapy vericella zoster human immunodeficiencies gangrene, botulism, snake bite, scorpion sting horse post-exposure rabies, human post-exposure hypogammaglobulinemia human prophylaxis 12
Advantages and Disadvantages of Passive Immunization Advantages immediate protection Disadvantages no long term protection serum sickness risk of hepatitis and Aids graft vs. host disease (cell graft only) 13
Active Immunization Natural exposure to sub-clinical infections Artificial Attenuat ed organisms killed organisms subcellular fragments tox ins oth ers 14
Live Attenuated Vaccines polio* not used in std. schedule measles, mumps & rubella Varicella zoster children with no history of chicken pox hepatitis A standard yellow fever 2006 Military and travelers Influenza selected age group (5 -49) tuberculosis not used in this country 15
Killed Whole-Organism Vaccines p olio influenza elderly and at risk rabies post exposure Q fever population at risk typhoid, cholera, plague epidemics and pertussis travelers replaced by the acellular vaccine 16
Microbial Fragment Vaccines Bordetella. Pertussis virulence factor Haemophilus protein influenzae B protein conjugated Streptococcus polysaccharide pneumoniae Polysaccharide mixture Neisseria meningitidis polysaccharide 17
Microbial Fragment Vaccines Clostridium tetani (tetanus) inactivated toxin (toxoid) Corynebacterium diphtheriae inactivated toxin (toxoid) Vibrio cholerae toxin subunits Hepatitis B virus cloned in yeast 18
Modification of Toxin to Toxoid Toxin Toxoid chemical modification toxin moiety antigenic determinants 19
Future Vaccines anti-Idiotype Vaccine DNA Immuno-dominant peptide 20
