About The Position

Use You Power for Purpose Vaccines is the only place in Pfizer where you can contribute to patients in a way like no other – you can prevent sickness and disease. This is at the heart of what drives us every day and it brings us great #Joy. It is a remarkable time to be part of Pfizer’s US Vaccines business as it expands on its mission of preventing disease and improving public health. Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a common respiratory virus that affects the lungs and airways and can be serious, especially for infants.  The disease burden of RSV in young children is staggering with virtually all children getting an RSV infection by the time they are two years old. In the United States, up to 600,000 infants experience lower respiratory tract disease (LRTD) due to RSV each year. For children younger than five years old in the U.S., approximately 2.1 million RSV outpatient visits and 58,000 RSV hospitalizations occur each year, and it is a leading cause of hospitalization in children less than one year of age. ABRYSVO is Pfizer’s bivalent RSV vaccine, for the prevention of LRTD and severe LRTD caused by RSV in infants from birth up to six months of age by active immunization of pregnant individuals at 32 through 36 weeks gestational age. Following a highly successful first two full seasons season, the team continues strives to further drive vaccine uptake to help protect infants from RSV via maternal immunization during the ACIP recommended season, from Sept. 1 thru Jan. 31. ABRYSVO is the first and only maternal immunization to help protect newborns from RSV immediately at birth through six months.  Given a highly competitive and rapidly evolving landscape, success will rely on accelerating vaccination uptake through communicating urgency to protect against RSV, the benefits of Maternal Immunization, robust clinical data, strong recommendations, and establishing Pfizer leadership.
