An experts view. The vital Importance of Continuous Temperature Monitoring of Vaccines

An experts view. The vital Importance of Continuous Temperature Monitoring of Vaccines
…….is high on the list given the burgeoning quality and quantity of Vaccine developments:

Courtesy GC Wall,

"Given the cost and risk involved when drugs are not stored consistently at appropriate temperatures, regulatory bodies and standard-setting organizations such as USP are correct to review current policies and consider increasing the requirements for rigor and timeliness.
U.S. Boards of Pharmacy (the regulatory bodies that are usually responsible for drug storage guidelines) should independently examine the need for continuous temperature monitoring and develop plans to implement such monitoring.
Health system leaders (Directors of Pharmacy, Chief Medical Officers, Chief Nursing Officers, etc.) should compare the available systems for continuous temperature monitoring and determine which is most appropriate for their facilities."
