Israel Repackaging Corona Vaccines to Maximize Public Accessibility
(Jerusalem Post) Abigail Adler - Israeli Health Minister Yuli Edelstein announced that "Israel is the first country to repackage and allow maximum public accessibility to the [corona] vaccine." Pfizer's coronavirus vaccine needs to be kept in ultra-cold storage and comes packaged in batches of 975 units. "Workers operate inside refrigerators at temperatures of two degrees! That way we will reach every point in the country without losing expensive vaccines." "The solution has been found for the vaccines to be safe and effective, without compromising their quality," said Health Ministry Director General Prof. Chezy Levy. "This allows us to vaccinate in small and remote places, as well as nursing homes."
