Vaccines manufactured by the Serum Institute are accredited by the World Health Organization, Geneva and are being used in around 170 countries across the globe in their national immunization programs, saving millions of lives throughout the world. Serum Institute of India is ranked as India's No. 1 biotechnology company, manufacturing highly specialized life saving biologicals like vaccines using cutting edge genetic and cell based technologies, antisera and other medical specialties. Serum Institute of India was founded in 1966 by Dr. Cyrus Poonawalla with the aim of manufacturing life-saving immuno-biologicals, which were in shortage in the country and imported at high prices. Thereafter, several life-saving biologicals were manufactured at prices affordable to the common man and in abundance, with the result that the country was made self-sufficient for Tetanus Anti-toxin and Anti-snake Venom serum, followed by DTP (Diphtheria, Tetanus and Pertussis) group of Vaccines and then later on MMR (Measles, Mumps and Rubella) group of vaccines. The Philanthropic philosophy of the company still not only exists but has been proliferated to bring down the prices of newer vaccines such as Hepatitis-B vaccine, Combination vaccine etc., so that not only Indian's, but the entire under-privileged children of the world are protected from birth onwards.

We are deeply committed to helping end meningitis as a public health threat by 2030. That’s why we’ve developed multiple generations of meningitis vaccines, which have been crucial in effectively eliminating meningitis A in Africa’s Meningitis Belt. We are now being deployed for the first time against more strains by Nigeria’s Ministry of Health. This World Meningitis Day, we invite you to learn more in AllAfrica Global Media from Seth Berkley and Samba Sow about the path to ending this disease and saving more lives. https://lnkd.in/gDBNsWhn #WorldMeningitisDay #DefeatMeningitis
