| Abstract: | This paper sets out to show that when we inoculate the familiar inactivated typhoid vaccine and cholera vaccine, or when we administer orally these attenuated (live) or inactivated (dead) vaccines, or chemical extracts or fractions thereof, we are attempting to reproduce as faithfully and as closely as we can the conditions which we have observed result as a consequence of a natural infection by the enteric bacilli and the cholera vibrios. Historical information regarding the Tab/Cho vaccines is outlined, pointing out also that within medical textbooks typhoid and cholera are usually grouped together in one because they are considered as being both intestinal diseases. For the convenience of travellers and holidaymakers, a combined Tab/Cho vaccine is available commercially. |
