While the flu season undoubtedly poses challenges for the NHS, prevention remains the most effective strategy. Encouraging the public to vaccinate against the flu is crucial in reducing the impact on healthcare resources. Vaccination protects individuals and helps reduce the overall burden on the healthcare system. From the 1st of August 2023 to the 31st of March 2024, the NHS in England has already administered over 5 million flu vaccines.
Versapak is proud to support the NHS with our range of Insulated Vaccine Carriers to store and transport these vital vaccinations. Unlike other vaccine cool boxes, our vaccine carriers are unique as they are tamper evident to keep the contents secure. They are reusable over 2,000 times and come with a 5-year guarantee. Versapak vaccine cool bags maintain a temperature of 2-8 degrees for up to 30 hours when used with cooling elements.
Further information for healthcare providers on the 2023/24 Flu vaccine programme can be found on the gov.uk website.
