America’s founding is in part due to the success of immunization. Forces of the Continental Army, weakened by repeated outbreaks of smallpox, lost the battle of Québec City in December 1775 and were forced to retreat to Fort Ticonderoga. Later, George Washington ensured his troops were healthy enough to fight the British by having soldiers in the Continental Army inoculated against smallpox. Today, vaccines protect our military, police forces, frontline workers, schools, communities, and families.
