# Sanofi Patient Connection Patient Guide: How to Get MenQuadfi at Low or No Cost MenQuadfi (Meningococcal (Groups A, C, Y, W) Conjugate Vaccine) is a vaccine that protects against serious infections from four types of meningococcal bacteria. The **Sanofi Patient Connection** program helps eligible patients get MenQuadfi at no cost if you meet income, residency, and insurance requirements. ## About MenQuadfi **MenQuadfi** is a single-dose vaccine approved for people 2 years and older to prevent invasive disease caused by *Neisseria meningitidis* serogroups A, C, Y, and W-135. These bacteria can cause meningitis (inflammation of the brain and spinal cord lining) and bloodstream infections, which can be life-threatening. It's especially recommended for adolescents, college students, travelers to high-risk areas, and those with certain medical conditions like spleen issues or immune disorders.
