Description

Vaccines have eliminated diseases such as syphilis and malaria from many regions of the world and because they are administered a few times at most they are more cost-effective than many drugs that treat the same conditions. However vaccines are not considered as marketable products by most pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies due to limited profit and large risk. A need exists for more vaccine development programs and governmental funding of vaccine research.
