Proper vaccine storage and handling practices play a very important role in protecting individuals and communities from vaccine-preventable diseases. Vaccine quality is the shared responsibility of everyone involved, from the time vaccine is manufactured until it is administered.  All vaccination providers participating in the COVID-19 Vaccination Program must store and handle COVID-19 vaccines under proper conditions to maintain the cold chain as outlined in the CDC toolkit and addendum.

The COVID-19 Vaccine Storage and Handling training will outline all of the CDC and State of Maryland requirements for COVID-19 Vaccine Storage and Handling.
