The vaccine cold chain is the term used for storing and distributing vaccines in good condition. This ensures that vaccines are kept at the correct, monitored temperature from manufacture through distribution, and allows for monitoring and forecasting of a vaccination programme. Carriers like this one are essential for ensuring vaccines remain at ideal temperatures when travelling into remote areas.
