Investment in vaccines is not about short-term savings, either in terms of lives or economic costs; it is about providing children with lifetime protection and the ability to realize their full potential. So, while reducing mortality is already reason enough to want to immunize every child on the planet, now we have the added motivation that we are not just saving lives, but also helping to improve many more lives in the process.
与此同时，现在我们知道，疫苗的价值远远不止于拯救生命的数字。疫苗投资并不是为了短期的拯救生命或节约经济成本；而是为了给儿童提供一生的保护和实现完全潜力的能力。因此，尽管降低死亡率以足以作为给地球上每一位儿童实施免疫的理由，但如今我们又有了新的动机——我们不仅能拯救生命，也能帮助改善无数人的生活。
