COVID-19 Vaccine Preparation Best Practices

CDC recommends preparing vaccines just before administration.

However, if the COVID-19 vaccine is not used immediately, provider pre-drawn syringes must be stored at the recommended temperatures throughout the clinic day.

Label the syringe with the vaccine name and dosage, the beyond-use date/ time, lot number, and the preparer's initials.

• Additional pertinent information can be added, such as age range, as needed.
