Session Chair(s)
Nobuhiko Okabe, MD
Director General

Although vaccination has largely contributed to the improvement and promotion of public health, prevention of infection by vaccination will become increasingly important for the Tokyo Olympic Games to be held in 2020. In this session, we introduce the vaccination system and examination in Japan, the United States and Europe, and discuss how the differences in the system influence vaccination promotion from various viewpoints. We will also discuss experiences on benefits gained by vaccination and expectations for future vaccine administration.
