The Impact Of Packaging At The Clinical Interface Of Vaccine, Healthcare Worker, And Patient

Vaccines are one of the greatest achievements in public health. A recent economic analysis indicated that vaccination of each U.S. birth cohort with the current childhood immunization schedule prevents approximately 42,000 deaths and 20 million cases of disease, with net savings of nearly $14 billion in direct costs and $69 billion in total societal costs.

The success of vaccination, particularly in developed nations, has been based on public recognition of their benefits, access to vaccines, and continuing public and private efforts to promote their use as an integral component of health and preventative care.
