Abstract
By 1995, measles, mumps, and rubella were eliminated from Finland, acellular vaccines for pertussis were showing great promise, and the global eradication of poliomyelitis by the year 2000 looked possible. The meningococcus was replacing Haemophilus influenzae type b as the main cause of childhood meningitis, and 75 countries were vaccinating their children against hepatitis B. The United States recommended varicella vaccination for children, effective vaccines were available for hepatitis A, and new vaccines for rotavirus and cholera were being tested; malaria and HIV offer a continuing challenge.
