Vaccines safely introduce people's bodies to diseases. This allows the body to recognize and fight a disease later on. Vaccines save millions of lives each year. Early vaccinations took place centuries ago, as people used dry scabs from smallpox to promote smallpox immunity.

Doctors and scientists across nations took and improved the method, developing vaccines for health crises from whooping cough to polio to COVID-19. Discover famous cases and current challenges, including the time frame for creating a new vaccine.
