An honor to be with my Hero Dr Mathu Santosham. A champion of child health and vaccines. A scientist and a friend with a very large heart. @Mathuram1963 @BMGFIndia @GHS@anayyar1
I am deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Dr. John Robbins who was a living legend in our lifetime. His scientific contributions especially conjugate technology for developing vaccines against Hib and pneumococcus has saved millions of lives around the world.
In Melbourne for #ISPPD2018. Great progress made in increasing access to pneumococcal vaccines but gaps remain. Looking forward to hearing about challenges and opportunities to fight pneumonia. #IVACatISPPD#VaccinesWork
