Daniel Department of Medicine, Center for Global Health and Diseases, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, USA ALBERT CALMETTE is known throughout the world today because his name is attached to the widely used vaccine against tuberculosis (TB). With his associate, Camille Guérin, he developed bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG), for which he deserves credit. He was, how- ever, more than simply the person who attenuated Mycobacterium bovis to produce the vaccine. Calmette was born on 12 July 1863 in Nice, France.1 At age 10, he moved with his family to Brest, where he suffered typhoid during an outbreak that swept through the lycée in which he was enrolled. Un- able to join the French navy as a regular mariner be- cause of his typhoid history, he entered the Naval Medical College of Brest in 1881. He earned the title of ‘aide-médecin’ in 1883 and was sent to South-East Asia. There he met Patrick Munson and made obser- vations on lymphatic filariasis under Munson’s tute- lage. Returning to France, he completed his medical studies in Paris in 1886; the title of his thesis was Figure Albert Calmette.

    IJAPS, Vol. 2, No. 1 (May 2006) PREVENTIVE MEDICINE AND "MISSION CIVILISATRICE" Uses of the BCG Vaccine in French Colonial Vietnam between the Two World Wars Laurence Monnais Université de Montréal INTRODUCTION This paper is part of a broader analysis of French health policy in colonial Vietnam1 (1860–1945), and in particular of the campaigns organized in the region by the French administration against the most important epidemic and endemic diseases, during a key period in the history not only of the emergence of biomedicine and its principal preventive strategies, but also of state intervention into public health issues in Europe and in the West in general. The fight against tuberculosis, one of the most deadly local endemic diseases, is a very revealing example of the contents, complexity and ambiguity of French health policy in Vietnam. Probing the decision to use the Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine in the 1920s will be particularly helpful for better understanding the function of public health in the colonizing process and in the relationship between colonizer and colonized. The use of BCG in Vietnam, which was both early and extensive in comparison with its use in France as we will see, seems likely to provide us with important new ways of understanding the role of the colonial empire in driving scientific experimentation and "progress", in particular by revealing the colonial administration's autonomy from metropolitan imperialist directives which, when not absent, were often not responding to local needs. This analysis is based on a variety of sources, including several modern histories of tuberculosis, archival data on health conditions in Vietnam (Centre des Archives d'Outre-mer, Archives Nationales du Viêt nam, Institut Pasteur de Paris) and of course the medical and popular press, including both colonial and locally published "Indochinese" journals and newspapers.

  • Vaccines Through Centuries: Major Cornerstones of Global Health
    REVIEW published: 26 November 2015 doi: 10.3389/fpubh.2015.00269 Vaccines Through Centuries: Major Cornerstones of Global Health Inaya Hajj Hussein 1*, Nour Chams 2, Sana Chams 2, Skye El Sayegh 2, Reina Badran 2, Mohamad Raad 2, Alice Gerges-Geagea 3, Angelo Leone 4 and Abdo Jurjus 2,3 1 Department of Biomedical Sciences, Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine, Rochester, MI, USA, 2 Department of Anatomy, Cell Biology and Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, American University of Beirut, Beirut, Lebanon, 3 Lebanese Health Society, Beirut, Lebanon, 4 Department of Experimental and Clinical Neurosciences, University of Palermo, Palermo, Italy Multiple cornerstones have shaped the history of vaccines, which may contain live- attenuated viruses, inactivated organisms/viruses, inactivated toxins, or merely segments of the pathogen that could elicit an immune response. The story began with Hippocrates 400 B.C. with his description of mumps and diphtheria. No further discoveries were recorded until 1100 A.D. when the smallpox vaccine was described. During the eighteenth century, vaccines for cholera and yellow fever were reported and Edward Jenner, the father of vaccination and immunology, published his work on smallpox. The nineteenth century was a major landmark, with the “Germ Theory of disease” of Louis Pasteur, the discovery of the germ tubercle bacillus for tuberculosis by Robert Koch, and the Edited by: isolation of pneumococcus organism by George Miller Sternberg. Another landmark was Saleh AlGhamdi, the discovery of diphtheria toxin by Emile Roux and its serological treatment by Emil King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences, Saudi Arabia Von Behring and Paul Ehrlih.

John Bunyan, The life and death of Mr Badman, 1680 The origins: Humanity has probably recognized tuberculosis (TB) as a killer disease since the last Ice Age, if not before. Traces of tuberculosis lesions have been found in the lungs of 3000-year-old Egyptian mummies. The Greek physician Hippocrates (460-370 BC)- "the father of medicine" - wrote a description of the disease. Name: In Classic Greek times it was known as phthisis, from the verb phthinein, to waste away. Right up to the present century, it was commonly called consumption - for the same reason. But it was in the 17th century that a Dutchman, Franciscus Silvius of Leyden, flrst used the term "tubercle" to describe the knobby lesions found In the 1950s, tuberculosis patients were confined to bed and told to breathe the fresh air in in the lungs of people who had died of sanatoria built in the mountains. the wasting disease.
