00:00.340 --> 00:02.451
The main role of medical logistics is

00:02.451 --> 00:04.507
to get the vaccine to the customer .

00:04.507 --> 00:06.562
Any supplies to the customer in this

00:06.562 --> 00:08.673
case , coping 19 . Our job is to make

00:08.673 --> 00:10.507
sure that it stays at the proper

00:10.507 --> 00:13.040
temperature , that it stays secure and

00:13.040 --> 00:14.873
that we make sure it gets to the

00:14.873 --> 00:17.151
customer Thio administered to patients .

00:17.151 --> 00:19.151
We make sure the boxes secure , and

00:19.151 --> 00:21.373
then we push it on down to the down the

00:21.373 --> 00:23.318
hallway to where are negative . 80

00:23.318 --> 00:25.429
degree freezers are once we're inside

00:25.429 --> 00:27.484
the room , we open the box . We make

00:27.484 --> 00:29.540
sure that the free that the freezers

00:29.540 --> 00:31.596
air sitting at negative 75 degrees ,

00:31.596 --> 00:33.596
which is where we have them the set

00:33.596 --> 00:35.707
right now to make sure that before we

00:35.707 --> 00:35.130
transferred from the box , the freezers

00:35.130 --> 00:37.352
air ready to go from there , we have to

00:37.352 --> 00:39.660
check everything . The lot number ,

00:39.670 --> 00:42.770
expiration date , um , the condition of

00:42.770 --> 00:44.881
the vaccine itself . But we only have

00:44.881 --> 00:46.992
about 90 seconds to do that from when

00:46.992 --> 00:49.159
we opened the box . And when we put it

00:49.159 --> 00:51.159
in the freezing once that is done ,

00:51.159 --> 00:53.437
wear complete with a receiving process ,

00:53.437 --> 00:55.780
and then we go and we actually , on the

00:55.790 --> 00:58.012
first day , it was actually really fast

00:58.012 --> 01:00.068
way immediately . Gotta order within

01:00.068 --> 01:02.068
our receiving the vaccine . We take

01:02.068 --> 01:04.012
those items out , we count all the

01:04.012 --> 01:06.234
doses and make sure that they're in the

01:06.234 --> 01:08.068
proper place . We feel them . We

01:08.068 --> 01:10.290
actually packed them . According to D .

01:10.290 --> 01:12.401
H s packing plan to make sure they're

01:12.401 --> 01:14.401
they're in a 2 to 8 degrees Celsius

01:14.640 --> 01:16.760
place when we ship them way have to

01:16.760 --> 01:18.760
ship them a two day , eight degrees

01:18.760 --> 01:20.982
Celsius and we make sure that that they

01:20.982 --> 01:23.038
maintain that temperature throughout

01:23.038 --> 01:25.204
shipment . When we know we're going to

01:25.204 --> 01:27.371
be administering the vaccine , we will

01:27.371 --> 01:29.720
have always to people who are cross

01:29.720 --> 01:31.831
checking each other to make sure that

01:31.831 --> 01:34.053
they're doing it properly . The vaccine

01:34.053 --> 01:36.970
is very temperamental in order to

01:36.980 --> 01:39.202
prepare the vaccine . Once it's removed

01:39.202 --> 01:41.258
from the refrigerator , it has to be

01:41.258 --> 01:43.950
removed . Brought to room temperature .

01:44.740 --> 01:48.490
The technician then needs to invert the

01:48.490 --> 01:52.330
vaccine 10 times , not shake it . And

01:52.330 --> 01:55.010
then the technician needs toe ad salt

01:55.010 --> 01:57.600
water or sailing to the vaccination in

01:57.600 --> 02:00.780
order to dilute it and prepare it for

02:00.780 --> 02:04.440
administration . We have toe constantly

02:04.440 --> 02:06.930
monitor the time the vaccine is out of

02:06.930 --> 02:09.950
the refrigerator because it can only be

02:09.950 --> 02:11.950
out of the refrigerator for certain

02:11.950 --> 02:13.839
periods of time . So once we have

02:13.839 --> 02:15.950
prepared the vaccine for the day , it

02:15.950 --> 02:18.620
is good for six hours . Once the

02:18.620 --> 02:21.580
vaccine is prepared in the Allergy

02:21.590 --> 02:23.701
Immunizations clinic , it has brought

02:23.701 --> 02:25.620
down to the location where we

02:25.620 --> 02:28.110
administer the vaccination , which we

02:28.110 --> 02:30.221
have selected as a conference room in

02:30.221 --> 02:33.380
the 59th Medical Wing . Upon delivery

02:33.380 --> 02:35.820
of the vaccine into the conference room ,

02:35.830 --> 02:37.880
there are two technicians who are

02:37.890 --> 02:40.970
monitoring the supply , the temperature

02:40.980 --> 02:43.036
and preparing the vaccine , then for

02:43.036 --> 02:44.924
administration by drawing it into

02:44.924 --> 02:48.380
syringes . Once we identified a site ,

02:48.440 --> 02:50.770
it was prepared so that we have an area

02:50.770 --> 02:54.430
for check in an area for recipients to

02:54.440 --> 02:57.910
be able to review the paperwork so that

02:57.910 --> 02:59.743
they could be educated about the

02:59.743 --> 03:01.850
vaccine . Once the individual has

03:01.850 --> 03:03.906
elected to receive the vaccine there

03:03.906 --> 03:06.690
checked in , they are moved to an area

03:06.690 --> 03:08.857
where they can receive the vaccine and

03:08.857 --> 03:10.912
safely wait for 15 minutes to ensure

03:10.912 --> 03:13.023
that they don't have a reaction , and

03:13.023 --> 03:14.968
then they are allowed to leave and

03:14.968 --> 03:17.079
scheduled for their next dose , which

03:17.079 --> 03:17.350
is in 21 days
