Introduction
Malaria, pneumonia, diarrhea, HIV/AIDS, malnutrition, and measles are the causes of death of children in the developing countries. These children die because they lack access to routine immunizations, proper diets, health services, and because their families are poor and their circumstances allow the easy thriving of pathogens. The possibility that a child will become seriously ill or die depends primarily on their body’s immune ability to fight off diseases. However, with the development of vaccines, controlling of these deadly diseases is possible. Vaccines are the most cost-effective methods of preventing infections and diseases which are likely to harm two to three million children annually.
