Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine shipping and handling guidelines
This guide details user processes and procedures that must be followed upon receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. The nature of this vaccine requires it to be kept at extremely low temperatures during shipment. To achieve this, multiple dose vials of the frozen vaccine are shipped in insulated thermal shipping containers containing dry ice. This allows the vaccine to remain frozen at this low temperature.
