In honour of immunization awareness, we’re highlighting an online Canadian historical exhibition called Vaccines & Immunization: Epidemics, Prevention & Canadian Innovation, created by the Museum of Health Care of Kingston.
The exhibition aims is “to look back on the unique Canadian experience with these diseases and their personal impact before the vaccines became available, focus the spotlight on the major role Canadian scientists played in their development, production and use, and underscore their public health importance in preventing, controlling or eradicating these diseases.”
