title: The new vaccine frontier.
abstract: Vaccines are one of the greatest public health achievements and have had a tremendous impact on people's health and survival around the world. Nevertheless, highly prevalent infectious disease threats unresponsive to traditional immunization strategies, emerging and re-emerging threats, and non-communicable diseases amenable to immunization remain critical global health challenges. Scientific advances will reveal solutions, but it will take political, social and economic commitment from all stakeholders for these solutions to achieve their health protection benefit among the people who need them most.
