As a vaccine pharmaceutical company, you are not unfamiliar with vaccines, but for departments that are not involved in vaccines or are about to be responsible for vaccine-related matters, it is necessary to understand the types and characteristics of vaccines.


       In our country, vaccines are generally divided into two categories: the first type of vaccines are vaccines prescribed by the state, which are purchased by the government through public bidding and vaccinated free of charge. It is used for routine immunization, supplementary immunization and emergency vaccination of children. Class II vaccines refer to other vaccines that are voluntarily vaccinated by citizens at their own expense, and are mainly used for vaccinations for people who are not covered by routine immunization. The transportation and storage of all vaccines must be in the cold chain at 2-8°C.
