We believe in a world where no one suffers or dies from a vaccine preventable disease. Our vaccines help protect as many as half a billion lives each year against life-threatening infectious diseases at every stage of life.

The Heritage of Sanofi Pasteur
The heritage of Sanofi Pasteur1 dates back more than a century, and is closely linked with the achievements of Louis Pasteur, the Mérieux family, John FitzGerald and Richard Slee. Although each followed a unique path, they shared one goal – protecting people from infectious diseases.
Sanofi Pasteur is a truly global company based on innovation, scientific rigor and international synergies. We are proud of our rich heritage and continue to draw inspiration from the legacy of the pioneers who built our foundation.
