  • Miles City (Montana, USA), August 30, 1919. Maurice Hilleman is born, a microbiologist, who caused millions of deaths worldwide during the flu pandemic. Although for many it is unknown, many say it is the person who has saved the most lives throughout history.
Maurice Hilleman (1919-2005) mikrobiologoak 40 txerto inguru garatu zituen, 
industria farmazeutikoaren baliabideak erabiliz. (arg: Walter Reed Medical)
Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

Hilleman developed a total of 40 vaccines against measles, roles, rubella, astanaphroditism, hepatitis A and B, meningitis and pneumonia, among others. Of the 14 vaccines recommended in current vaccination programs, 8 have been developed by this group.

The vaccine against paper or ants, for example, began to develop at home. Her daughter, Jeryl Lynn, caught several ants in 1963 and her father took a sample of the mumps virus to the throat. He was vaccinated in 1967, that is, after four years of work. And the commercialization of 40 vaccines required, in addition to a lot of work, serious bureaucratic procedures, especially hated by Hilleman, and large financial resources. So despite the fact that at the end of the PhD program at the University of Chicago, he got a number of jobs from the academic field, he quit all of them, and from the beginning he went to the industry.

I wanted the findings to reach people as soon as possible, and the means to do so were not in academia, but in the pharmaceutical industry. He worked in several companies until in 1957 he started working for the company Merck. And he would stay there until his retirement.

Maurice Hilleman sought to save millions of lives and fatten the pharmaceutical industry with millions of dollars.
