Plotkin's Vaccines

"This book covers the history, immunology, innovative technology, and public health impacts of vaccines, and includes chapters dedicated to each of the commonly used vaccines. Moreover, the title includes a companion ebook that contains late-breaking information on topics such as Mpox, not contained within the print version. This eighth edition is an update to the previous version, published in 2017, which was prior to the widespread use of mRNA vaccines and the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic." -©Doody’s Review Service, 2023, Bradford Becken, MD (University of Nebraska Medical Center) Doody's Score: 5 Stars!
