History of Vaccine Production in Iran

Vaccine production in Iran has a long history and its history dates back to more than 101 years ago. All these years, we have all been vaccinated with vaccines made in Iran against tuberculosis, hepatitis B, polio, diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, measles, rubella and mumps. About a century has passed since the production of vaccines in Iran, which is ranked 10th worldwide in the production of vaccines. In addition to producing the vaccines needed to vaccinate children and adults, Iran has been able to export the same vaccines to Asian, African and some European countries. We are 97% self-sufficient in the production of livestock vaccines, but we import 70% in the field of poultry vaccines.
