Life-saving technologyCOVID-19 vaccines are considered valuable commodities nowadays, with many countries still waiting for ample supply of vaccines to inoculate their citizens against the virus. Many companies in the US and other countries have developed the technology to maintain the effectiveness of vaccines through so-called biothermal cases. This temperature-controlled packaging technology has been proven by the US military, which has been using biothermal cases to carry life-saving blood for soldiers who sustain life-threatening injuries in remote battlefields. The technology also provides the required temperature requirement with consistency, keeping the vaccines and other biologicals safe even during long-distance trips. Luckily for the Philippines, the government’s national cold-chain and logistics partner also uses the same technology in the packaging and delivery of vaccines.
