The scientific and outreach literature has been enriched by the
following recent additions. Articles in this list are separated into
3 broad categories: (i) Surveillance, Outbreaks & Risks; (ii) Vector
Control and (iii) Virology, Symptoms, Manifestations. Most were
brought to our attention by the Science Alert feature of the journal
Science.

Smithburn et al. reports the first identification and naming of WNV!)

Why Are Pharmaceutical Companies Gradually Abandoning Vaccines?
[Infrastructure]
Paul A. Offit
Health Affairs. 24 (3): 622-630
http://content.healthaffairs.org/cgi/content/abstract/24/3/622?ct
During the past fifty years, the number of pharmaceutical companies
making vaccines has decreased dramatically, and those that still make
vaccines have reduced resources to make new ones. Pharmaceutical
companies are gradually abandoning vaccines because the research,
development, testing, and manufacture of vaccines are expensive and
because the market to sell vaccines is much smaller than the market
for other drug products. Congressional action could assure both a
steady supply of existing vaccines and the promise of vaccines for
the future.
Why Certain Vaccines Have Been Delayed Or Not Developed At All
[Perspective, Infrastructure]
Stanley A. Plotkin
Health Affairs, Vol 24, Issue 3, 631-634
Vaccine development is a long process, with the time from early
research to licensure steadily increasing. At one time the process
took about ten years; now it takes closer to fifteen to twenty years.
The process begins with investigators in universities or biotech
firms who have an idea. However, to take things further, there must
be a vaccine manufacturer, a regulatory authority ready to give
permission for the use of the vaccine, and public health authorities
that will recommend and foster vaccination.
