Abstract
This article focuses on a few significant milestones in the history of vaccination. As the contributions of key investigators, such as Jenner, Pasteur, and Salk were slowly accepted, the developments and discoveries that followed pushed ahead the science of vaccinology. The article also recognizes the accomplishments of the World Health Organization and concludes with a short synopsis of vaccines being developed for the future.
