Abstract
Vaccine technology can be applied to targets of intervention that currently have not been considered preventable by immunization. Targets include some diseases caused by, or related to, infectious agents, and other conditions clearly unassociated with disease pathogens. This article considers vaccines for pregnancy, peptic ulcer disease, gastric cancer, cocaine abuse and atherosclerosis.
