Abstract

Both conventional virus vaccines and those being introduced in the near future are either live attenuated viruses or nonliving inactivated viruses, mere virus-like particles (VLP) or purified proteins. Live vaccines yield a "more natural" immunity, but in many cases also a nonliving vaccine is sufficient to protect from viral infections. Influenza vaccines are of both types. The commencing HPV vaccination program will be conducted with a VLP vaccine comprising two serotypes. A live chickenpox vaccine will be introduced in the national vaccination program in the next few years. In addition, a shingles vaccine is needed. The live oral rotavirus vaccine works well.
