     For the most part, though there were isolated researchers working on 
vaccines to combat it.  One team in particular is right here at Arizona State 
University (ASU) who developed an effective vaccine using the leaves of tobacco 
plants as a host, similar to using horses in the 19th century to develop 
smallpox vaccine and chicken eggs currently for flu vaccines.
