The latest shipment of about 580 000 doses of the Comirnaty vaccine, manufactured by BioNTech and filled and finished at another plant (Baxter) in Germany, arrived in Hong Kong this afternoon (April 23) as arranged by Fosun Pharma.
Soon after the arrival of the latest batch of the Comirnaty vaccine in Hong Kong, staff carried out stringent checking and inspection of the vaccine in accordance with established procedures to ensure that it complies with the product specifications and that the transportation process follows the relevant cold-chain requirements. The Government will put the vaccine in validated ultra-low temperature freezers to ensure its proper storage in accordance with the temperature specified by the drug manufacturer.
The labels of these vaccine vials contain English and simplified Chinese. The vaccines concerned were manufactured by the same manufacturer and filled and finished at the same plant with the same specifications in Germany.
