  • CSR Manager.org - Attacking a Potential Killer of Children

    In 2006, Merck introduced RotaTeq®, its rotavirus vaccine, in the U.S. Merck recognized, however, that this vaccine was most needed in the developing world but that it would be unsustainable to donate it on an ongoing basis – it needed to identify a sustainable business model. Through the Merck-Nicaraguan Ministry of Health RotaTeq® Partnership Merck pledged to donate enough rotavirus vaccine for three birth cohorts of children and funding to introduce the vaccine, improve disease awareness, develop appropriate educational materials, and update the routine vaccination card. Our goal was to demonstrate the feasibility and health benefit of introducing the vaccine in a developing country.
