Summary
The 105th Muzakarah of the National Fatwa Committee in February 2014 ruled that using the Monumen meningitis vaccine produced by Sanofi Pasteur is permissible. The ruling followed a review of the latest formulation and production process of the Menomune vaccine, which is free from any animal source. As a result, the earlier prohibition decided at the 53rd Muzakarah on 27 November 2002 was revoked.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Muzakarah bersetuju memutuskan bahawa hukum penggunaan Vaksin Meningitis Monumen yang dikeluarkan oleh Sanofi Pasteur adalah diharuskan.
