title: [Vaccination: I. What has proved useful? (author's transl)].
abstract: There is no doubt that vaccinations against smallpox, poliomyelitis, measles, German measles and mumps have proved their value. The pocks seem to have been actually eliminated by the WHO eradication program. A vaccination law would seem to be no longer necessary. Poliomyelitis vaccination and those for German measles, measles and mumps should be publicized. Also every child should be given an effective tetanus vaccination three times in the first or second year of life with a booster vaccination at the age of 10 or 12 at the latest. A liquid vaccine (TD) would be desirable as a booster for adults. Up to the 4 year TD and Polio booster vaccinations are recommanded.
