Since 1949 medical scientists, using similar tissue culture methods, have isolated some 50 disease-causing viruses. During World War II Enders himself isolated strains of viruses responsible for mumps and lator produced a partially successful vaccine against it.
In more recent years, Enders and his fellow workers at Children's Hospital have isolated and grown the measles virus in tissue culture and have prepared a measles vaccine which is currently being tested in man. Co-author of a text on immunity, Enders has contributed chapters on viral infections...

The first vaccines will be made from ten viruses-respiratory syncytial virus (the most important), three types of parainfluenza virus, six...
