BCG vaccine nesting birds and rusted electrical conduits. The resulting closure of the plant for over two years resulting in shortages of bladder cancer and tuberculosis vaccines. On October 29, 2014 Health Canada gave the permission for Sanofi to resume production of BCG.

Inoculation theory message acceptance and source credibility. This study is relevant to inoculation research in that it lends credence to Miller, et al.
