At Nanoly, we are developing a chemical that will allow vaccines to survive without refrigeration so that they can be delivered to rural areas of the world.
EVEN IN THE 21ST CENTURY, PEOPLE LIVING IN HARD-TO-REACH AREAS OF THE WORLD still sTRUGGLE TO RECEIVE basic IMMUNIZATION.
According to the World Health Organization: - 26 million children worldwide are not immunized, exposed to disabilities and premature death - 2.1 million people die each year from vaccine-preventable diseases - strict vaccine refrigeration requirements contribute to vaccine wastage rates of 25% to 50% (small and large vials, respectively)
Nanoly’s technology enables cheap, effective, and safe delivery of vaccines to anywhere in the world. We are developing a nanoparticle based chemical shield that allows vaccines to survive without refrigeration.
Our Bottom Line
Cheap: Decreased vaccine transportation and delivery cost to developing countries
Effective: Increased immunization access in remote areas of the world
Safe: Decreased vaccine spoilage and inventory waste and decreased carbon footprint
