Ranging from changing societal expectations and pressure from parent, patientĪnd physician groups to new scientific discoveries, may have had an even Preventive vaccination policies, which were influenced by numerous factors Had a direct impact on the prevalence of certain infectious diseases, While Japan's climate and geography as an island nation in the Far East have Infectious diseases, what Jeffrey Baker has referred to as a national Have devised distinctive policies to deal with the prevention and spread of Public health authorities in every nation This chapter will trace these influences-both past and present-on Japan’s vaccination policies in order to shed light on its unique approach to immunisation and production.Ī distinctive nation: vaccine policy and production in This distinctiveness stems from Japan’s unique history of disease, policies and institutions, whose centerpiece is the Preventative Vaccination Law (PVL) introduced in 1947 during the Allied occupation (1945-52). By delineating the principal features and influences on the development of Japan’s vaccine policies and production using a wide range of illustrations, the writer argues that Japan’s approach differed markedly from the ones adopted by the health authorities in other nations. However, as shown in this chapter, there is strong evidence that preventive vaccination policies that were strongly influenced by foreign health authorities, changing societal expectations, pressure from special interest groups, and new scientific discoveries played as an important, if not a more significant role in the formation of Japan’s approach to immunisation and vaccine production. Factors such as climate and geography were important determinants of the types vaccines selected for use and the prevalence of certain infectious diseases in Japan.
