▴ European Commission approves MenQuadfi, the latest innovation in meningococcal vaccination
The EC has approved MenQuadfi for active immunization against invasive meningococcal disease caused by Neisseria meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y.

The European Commission (EC) has approved MenQuadfi for active immunization of individuals from the age of 12 months and older against invasive meningococcal disease caused by Neisseria meningitidis serogroups A, C, W and Y.

“Meningococcal meningitis can take one’s life in as little as one day and leave survivors with severe permanent disabilities. In Europe, there were more than 3,000 cases of Invasive Meningococcal Disease in 2018, half of them caused by serogroups C, W and Y,” says Thomas Triomphe, Head of Sanofi Pasteur. “One case is one too many. It is our ambition to make this vaccine available worldwide to further expand protection to as many people as possible. The European Commission’s approval of MenQuadfi takes us one step closer to achieving this goal.”
