Viruses cause a large number of diseases in humans, some of which are fatal, while others are highly debilitating. A majority of viral diseases attack infants and young children, while others strike people in their prime. Development of preventive measures against viral diseases is, therefore, of paramount importance. Vaccination is the most cost-effective medical intervention for preventing mortality and morbidity against infectious diseases. A number of effective and safe vaccines are currently available against several viral diseases of significant medical importance. Many of these manufactured in India, are at par with international standards and are affordable. For many other viral diseases, for which vaccines are currently not available, research is underway at various national laboratories, as well as in the private sector companies in India. The present overview highlights the various vaccine preventable viral diseases that are of special importance to India and aims to provide a glimpse of the various vaccines that are currently available, or are under development in India.
期刊介绍:
The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India, Section B: Biological Sciences, is one of the oldest journals of India, launched in the year 1930, by the National Academy of Sciences, India (the Oldest Science Academy of India). The research/review papers of different fields of science, e.g. Agriculture Sciences (Agriculture, Animal Husbandry, Fisheries, Forestry, Agric. Toxicology, Soil Science, Plant Protection, Post Harvest Technology, and Agricultural Engineering), Animal Sciences (Structural, Developmental, Functional, Genetical, Ecological, Behavioural, Taxonomical and Evolutionary Aspects), Biochemistry, Biophysics, Biotechnology (including Molecular and Cell Biology, Structural and Functional Studies, Microbiology and Immunology), Medical & Forensic Sciences (Basic and Clinical Medical Sciences, Pharmacology, Anthropology, Psychology and Forensic Sciences, Human genetics, Reproduction Biology, Neurosciences and Molecular Medicine) and Plant Sciences (Structural, Developmental, Functional, Genetical, Ecological, Taxonomical and Evolutionary Aspects), are published in this journal for dissemination of the scientific knowledge and research. The papers published are indexed/abstracted by the leading abstracting agencies of the world. The papers are published after critical review and editing by the eminent experts of the concerned subject area; therefore, the quality publication is assured once the paper is accepted by the learned referees.
