Despite being easily preventable measles causes more than 750,000 deaths worldwide a year. Kill or Cure follows the hunt for better treatments for the disease, highlighting the difficulties that confront large immunisation programmes in developing countries such as Tajikistan. We look at the development of aerosol vaccines in the UK that appear to offer hope for future immunisation programmes.
