Abstract: | The use of BCG (Bacille Calmette-Guerin) as an adjuvant is well-established for vaccination against leprosy and tuberculosis. Dominique Frommel and Phillippe Lagrange discuss the effects of BCG in the control of parasite infections, particularly leishmaniasis, and the possibility of the development of anti-parasite recombinant BCG vaccines. |
