In this case we encounter the website The History of Vaccines administered by the College of Physicians of Philadelphia's Mütter Museum, dedicated to improving the health of citizens through its educational programs, services and resources.
The history of vaccines is explained here with a time line really immediate, direct, fun to browse and further, inviting the user to the different historical stages.
