  Prevention of disease through immunization is always the best way to help children develop and grow without major disruption.

• Annette Cadell said:

  The vaccine was most likely the diptheria toxoid and pertussis vaccine. Australia has been at the forefront of childhood immunisation.

  Here's a brief biography of A. Bertram Samuels, who may be the A. B. Samuels in the photo above. His age seems to be appropriate.

  TYPHUS, WAR'S DREAD ALLY, BEATEN; News of Dr. Harry Plotz's Vaccine Discovery Comes When Europe Faces Awful Ravages from Scourge. April 18, 1915 The announcement of the discovery of a protective vaccine against typhus fever, the dreadful scourge that dogs the heels of war, following closely upon the confirmation of the germ origin of the disease by repeated demonstrations of a distinct causative agent visible under the microscope, is but another instance of the accuracy of modern laboratory methods and the continual progress of medical science. select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F20C1EFE385C1373...

  books.google.com/books/about/The_Etiology_of_Thyphus_Exan... indicates that Baehr was a colleague of Plotz. Another copy, at archive.org/stream/etiologyoftyphus00plotrich#page/n1/mod... indicates that "The etiology of typhus exanthematicus" was first published in July 1915 in the Journal of Infectious Diseases. Authors were Harry Plotz, George Baehr, and Peter K. Olitsky.

• swanq said:

  NYT of June 28, 1915 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F50F11FD3B5C13738... reported that Plotz and Baehr sailed on the Themistocles the previous day for Serbia for a year, armed with 20,000 tubes of typhus vaccine.
