The Menveo one-vial presentation will initially be available to US federal customers, with broader availability anticipated in mid-2023. Invasive meningococcal disease (IMD), known as meningitis, is an uncommon but serious illness that can cause life-threatening complications or even death. IMD is caused by Neisseria meningitidis, with the majority of cases caused by serogroups (A, B, C, W, Y) in most of the world. Among those who contract meningitis, one in ten will die, despite treatment, sometimes in as little as 24 hours. One in five (up to 20%) of meningitis survivors suffer long-term consequences, such as brain damage, amputations, hearing loss and nervous system problems.
