A recent discovery of a completely handwritten and high quality 105-page handbook of vaccine manual from two former researchers, late Professors Bin Ni and Bingqing Xu, brought back the direct evidence and the scope of vaccine work exactly 80 years ago in China during the WWII (Figure 1 ). The vaccine manual is now donated to the NMU history museum, Nanjing, China, by Profs Ni and Xu's surviving children including the corresponding author of this paper. We can only hope the COVID-19 pandemic, no less damaging than a world war to some degree, will also stimulate the development of better vaccines to control the current and future emerging infections, just like what were accomplished after the WWII. ./cache/cord-013091-qbgwcbfu.txt ./txt/cord-013091-qbgwcbfu.txt
