2024 Miegunyah Distinguished Fellowship Public Lecture presented by Professor Arup Chakraborty, from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
History is full of stories about plagues and contagion. Because of better sanitation and vaccines, many inhabitants of the 21st century had forgotten about the human and economic toll of infectious diseases - the COVID-19 pandemic was a vivid reminder.
The rapid development of effective vaccines during this pandemic also reminded us of the impact of vaccines on well-being. Indeed, vaccination has saved more lives than any other medical procedure. Professor Chakraborty discusses the historical evolution of the development of vaccines through six centuries.
Professor Chakraborty traces the path of scientific/technological advances along with stories about the people who led these efforts, and the health impacts of vaccination and beyond (including opposition to vaccines).
