Vaccines are responsible for many global public health successes, such
as the eradication of smallpox and significant reductions in other
serious infections like polio and measles. Even so, vaccinations have
also long been the subject of various ethical controversies. For adult
vaccinations, it has been advocating to protect against illness,
absenteeism from work, hospitalization, or even death; however, adult
vaccination rates, on average, are far lower than other population age
group for immunization and infectious diseases.
Over the years, the field of adult vaccination has undergone
enormous expansion in clinical and basic data, as well as that of
field-related technology. With the problem of diseases reaching
epidemiological dimensions, treatment possibilities have digressed
diversely. This development has created a need for debates on the
numerous controversial issues, and to attain clinical conclusions.
