    Vaccines play an important role in our lives, being one of the great advances in modern medicine. This week is the WIW 2022 - Long Life for All campaign.

    The smallpox vaccine was developed in 1796 by Edward Jenner and since then vaccines have saved millions of lives, have cut infant mortality rates drastically.
    The 2022 theme “Long Life for All” aims to unify people around the idea that vaccines make it possible for us to follow our dreams, protect our loved ones and live a long, healthy life.
