Remember your childhood vaccination memories? You probably did not want to get vaccinated for fear of syringes or pain. When you were a child, did you wish the vaccines were oral? Well, maybe researchers can fulfill your childhood wish. A new generation of vaccines is being developed that you can vaccinate by eating a modified tomato or potato. Oral vaccines, such as tomatoes, cause more people to be vaccinated in less time. And another advantage of plant-based vaccines is that they are stable at high temperatures and do not require special refrigerators to transport them to other countries.
