Apart from this, any storage facility for COVID-19 vaccines has to dedicate
attention to the freezers keeping the dozens of vials safe in addition to
managing power to keep their health records or oxygen supply intact and
running. Since doses are still limited to date, any vial lost because of the
sudden temperature change would mean that fewer people can be protected
from COVID-19.
The stakes of a power outage for health care are always high. But when the
system is already unstable and run ragged by one emergency, a second
stressor compounds the pressure to keep the lights on and the freezers
running.
In response to the issue, the Oregon Health Authority is starting to move
vaccines to locations with power, although they are not disclosing which of
their storage facilities are currently down. Kentucky are also making sure that
sites with COVID-19 vaccine storage units have contingency plans in place as
part of their storm preparations.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear shared that every provider have a
generator ready on site or a partner who can provide alternative power
sources right away. This should ensure that no vaccines are going to waste.
