Health Care Worker Preferences and Perspectives on Doses per Container for 2 Lyophilized Vaccines in Senegal, Vietnam, and Zambia. Kanagat et al. (2020)
• Healthcare workers (HCWs) in all three countries preferred containers with fewer doses for reconstituted vaccines such as BCG and measles-containing vaccines.
• HCWs believed that containers with fewer doses of these vaccines could reduce wastage and missed vaccination opportunities.
• HCWs were more willing to open a vial for every eligible child when using containers with fewer doses.
