Company’s Approach:
Partnerships with
Governments
Logistic Companies
Transportation Companies
Specialized Package & Storage solutions.
Agreements included:
Provisions for the delivery
Distribution
Administration of the vaccine
Pfizer developed thermal shippers for safe transport of
the vaccine:
• Pfizer created a specialized package
• Allowed the vaccine to be stored and transported at ultra-cold
temperatures.
• To maintain the cold storage temperature (-60°C to – 80°C) for up to 10
days without the need for additional cooling.
Development of an oral
vaccine PAXLOVID (Under process)
• potential advantages over injectable vaccines
• easier administration that doesn't require trained personnel
• stored and transported at standard refrigeration
temperatures same as other vaccines
• make distribution easier and accessible to underdeveloped
areas.
