How is a vaccine made
Typically, companies will work to complete clinical development plans for a vaccine. Once authorized, manufacturing begins to scale up.
#COVAX will also boost development capacity & ensure equitable distribution of vaccines. http://bit.ly/3675hhZ

How is a vaccine stored
Vaccines need to be stored at the correct temperature.
Most vaccines require refrigerated storage at between 2 and 8 °C. Some newer vaccines need to be kept cold at -20°C or ultra-cold at -70°C.

How is a vaccine shipped
To maintain this cold chain, vaccines are shipped using specialized equipment
Refrigerated lorries transport the vaccines to the cold room
Portable iceboxes are used to transport vaccines to regional centres
