A Doctor s Perspective: Victor Nizet, MD
As a pediatric infectious disease physician who trained in the 1980s and 1990s, I gained plenty of experience caring for infants or children who contracted serious, and sometimes life-threatening, infections because of lack of vaccine access (or first-generation vaccines that worked only in older patients). A few examples include acute epiglottis choking the airway from Haemophilus influenzae; pneumococcal meningitis with severe sequelae such as deafness or cerebral palsy; and fatal measles encephalitis in a recent immigrant. These frightening diseases are now vanishingly rare in communities with high adherence to the pediatric immunization schedule, ensuring one key aspect of health for all children to thrive, pursue their dreams, and reach their full potential.
