The Washington Post today profiles the Gates Foundation's funding of programs that aim to improve international vaccination rates for diseases such as diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus and of initiatives that aim to develop new vaccines for diseases such as HIV/AIDS, malaria and rotavirus (Gillis, Washington Post, 7/14).
