peer agreement (net): +7combined polio, diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis vaccine Explanation: check out the website below (here is an excerpt): The Mérieux Institute developed other new vaccines: a rabies vaccine, with Hilary Koprowski; a rubella vaccine, with Stanley Plotkin; and a combination vaccine conferring protection against polio, diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis, which became the "Tetracoq" vaccine that revolutionized the immunization schedule for young children. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2006-12-13 20:36:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Oops - meant to put my second comment in here...yes, leave it untranslated. It is manufactured in the UK (among other countries) but I am not sure whether it is widely available to the Brits...must admit I had never heard of it until your question!
