The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted each dimension of businesses as well as the way people live all around the world. The economic and social disruption caused by the pandemic is devastating. The virus has claimed more than 2.5 million lives globally and the number is only going upwards.

As we witnessed the health systems and governments of different countries collapsing and struggling to diminish the disruption caused by COVID-19, the only hope to end the pandemic is through a mass vaccination program. As one deadly disease like the COVID-19 spreads across the world, only immunization efforts can halt the transmission and prevent future outbreaks. With more than 10 million cases in the country, India began its largest vaccination drive on 16 January 2021. Therefore, COVID-19 vaccination is now offering a way to transition out of this phase of the pandemic. The Indian government along with state governments and other healthcare bodies is working simultaneously to deploy vaccines to the masses with the help of critical cold chain infrastructure, responsible for the safe delivery of vaccines.

To streamline and strengthen the most significant and largest vaccination drive in history, AWL, the leading cold chain, and logistics solution provider is all prepared and equipped to provide advanced and world-class cold chain solutions for COVID-19 vaccination.

Just like other vaccines and pharmaceuticals, COVID-19 vaccines are also required to be kept under certain temperature conditions to protect the integrity and potency of the vaccine. Since the COVID-19 vaccines are extremely temperature-sensitive, advanced cold chain solutions are required to prevent the wastage of vaccines. Both over-cooling and under cooling can profoundly impact the vaccines and can make them inefficient, which is why AWL has come up with a wide range of refrigerators and medical freezes especially built to protect the vaccines that provide cooling up to -20°C. As per the evaluation done by India for the adequate temperature required for the storage and transportation of vaccines, AWL's end-to-end solutions provide temperature ranges suitable for various COVID-19 vaccines.

With the help of its cutting-edge technology, innovative strategies, and sophisticated infrastructure, AWL cold chain efficiently maintains the optimum temperature range between 2 to 8°C for vaccine storage and preservation up to 12 days and even events like power outrage can't disrupt the integrity of the vaccines and keep providing precision cooling. While transporting vaccines to the remotest regions where there's no electricity supply, our cold chain equipment is powered with solar energy to maintain its effectiveness and deliver uniformed cooling throughout its journey of reaching the destination. At AWL, our cold chain solutions and robust equipment are eco-friendly yet effective and can live up to the worse climatic conditions.

Here's what  Mr. Rahul Mehra (Founder & CEO of AWL India) has to say on these developments:
