The Oswaldo Cruz Foundation's Institute of Immunobiological Technology is now able to fulfill vaccine orders from both the Health Ministry and the UN, among others.
Sanitarian took over the country's main public health agency in 1903 with the promise of defeating three simultaneous epidemics: bubonic plague, smallpox, and yellow fever.
Brazil’s Health Ministry has launched the second stage of Movimento Vacina Brasil nas Fronteiras, an initiative to step up vaccination efforts across 16 municipalities by November 30.
From June onwards, 4 million monthly doses of the yellow fever vaccine are expected to enter the market, reported Brazilian Health Minister Ricardo Barros. The doses are going to add up to 4 million monthly doses already produced, doubling the number available.
