COVID vaccine: Dry ice shortage concerns create Pfizer distribution challenges in fight against coronavirus

The cold chain is just one of the challenges in distributing vaccines worldwide. There are plenty of others: decisions about priority populations and databases to keep track of who s received what vaccine, where and when. Additionally, different vaccines may have more or less efficacy with different population groups; and governments will need PR campaigns to persuade people that vaccines are safe. But the logistics of transporting and storing vaccines getting them from the factory gate to the patient s arm are critical. And as most vaccines are likely to require two doses, the whole chain needs must be repeated within weeks.
