Pfizer COVID vaccine can be stored for 1 month at refrigerator temperatures, FDA says – KIIITV.com
The news that Pfizer’s COVID vaccine remains stable when stored for a month at refrigerator temperature could help poorer regions get better access.
The Food and Drug Administration says the thawed Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine can be stored for up to a month before being thrown out. The news that the vaccine remains stable at lower temperatures provides an enormous boost for the worldwide distribution of the vaccine.
The FDA announced Wednesday that the thawed, undiluted vaccine can be stored in refrigerators between 35 degrees and 46 degrees Fahrenheit for up to a month. Previously, it could only be kept for five days after thawing.
