Without vaccination, diseases such as measles, rubella, and mumps — which are still considered among the most serious and life-threatening infections — would claim millions of lives each year.

Bees - an unexpected tool in the fight against poverty

Every year on 20th May we celebrate World Bee Day. The importance of bees for the ecosystem and the food industry has long been known.
