It is no exaggeration to say that the Tashkent Research Institute of Vaccines and Serums, which has a history of more than 100 years, is currently undergoing a process almost 100 years ago.The foundation stone of the institute was laid on September 17, 1918 by the order of the People's Commissariat of Health of the Republic of Turkestan with the establishment of a microbiological laboratory in Tashkent. This laboratory later became the Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology. At that time, diseases such as smallpox and plague were widespread not only in the Republic, but throughout Central Asia, and the epidemiological situation was extremely difficult. Therefore, the institute has focused all its efforts on the elimination of these diseases and the improvement of the overall epidemiological situation in the Republic.By 1950, a number of new laboratories and departments had been established at the institute, and separate departments for the production of drugs had been set up. In the same year, by the decision of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, the institute was renamed the Tashkent Research Institute of Vaccines and Serums and transferred to the Ministry of Health of the USSR.The institute has its own production department, where the results of scientific research, developed drugs, vaccines and serums and diagnostic tools are put into practice in this department.The main activities and tasks of the Tashkent Research Institute of Vaccines and Serums are as follows:Study and scientific development of epidemiology and microbiology of infectious diseases in the Republic;Production of safe and curative medicinal products (vaccines and serums), as well as diagnostic pharmaceutical products and study their effectiveness;Scientific and methodological management of epidemiological laboratories, provision of pasteurization stations with antigen and vaccine materials;Consultation with local health authorities and other organizations on epidemic disease control;The first scientific works published by the institute were devoted to the problem of combating plague and smallpox.
