How a change in the Pfizer s storage temperature could completely change vaccine access cbc.ca 3 hrs ago Adam Miller © Nathan Denette/The Canadian Press A health-care worker prepares a dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine at a clinic in Toronto on Jan. 7. Health Canada says a submission is now under review to introduce a similar change to the vaccine s storage conditions in Canada. The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine can now be stored at typical refrigerator temperatures in Europe for weeks longer than previously thought, which could have major implications on the rollout of vaccines across Canada and the world. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommended the change to the more flexible storage conditions for the vaccine on Monday, saying it could have a significant impact on the deployment of vaccines throughout the European Union.
