The international authorities show that the quality, efficacy and safety of vaccines are tested and ensured at a high level world-wide and that the benefit of a vaccination by far outweighs the possible risks involved with such a vaccination. The aim is to strengthen the acceptance of vaccinations as an important preventive step towards protecting the population from infectious diseases.
