UN body to assess Nepal’s vaccine management practices

Nepal strengthened vaccine cold chain significantly following the Covid outbreak. It can currently store 336,838 litres of vaccine at 2 to 8 degrees Celsius and 20,564 litres at minus 15 to 25 degrees Celsius.

Nepali health authorities are set to assess the vaccine supply chain’s strengths and weaknesses using the World Health Organisation’s tools to evaluate effective vaccine management.
