Koirala Institute of Health Sciences’ work to evaluate the performance of three different freeze-preventive vaccine carriers. Conducted in the 24 health facilities of Sunsari and Dhankuta districts of Nepal, the evaluation found that these freeze safe carriers protect vaccines from freeze-damage and save health workers time.
