# diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (whooping cough) measles, tuberculosis, and polio. These are the illnesses you ought to have been immunised against as a child or as a teenager if you're female. With the exception of tuberculosis these desiese are now controlled in the developed world. TB is returning and TB treatment centres are found in most eastern US cities and many European cities. I'll write about the new forms of TB in the fourth of this series. # hepatitis B # Hib # yellow fever are desieses against which many millions of children in the non developed world need vaccines. Yesterday, the Gates foundation gave 750 million$ to GAVI the global vaccine alliance.
