GPs could start offering Pfizer vax after ‘game-changing’ cold chain decision: Hunt
The health minister is optimistic the TGA will follow European regulators on 31-day vaccine storage advice
An international decision that Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine can be stored at temperatures between 2°C and 8°C for up to a month is setting the stage for Australian GPs to administer it to under-50s, Minister for Health Greg Hunt says.
The cold-chain demands of the mRNA vaccine have created logistical headaches given it has to remain at -70°C for long-term storage.
