The&#13;<br \/>\nvaccine was delivered in specially designed thermal shipper packaging customised&#13;<br \/>\nby the manufacturer. Each shipment was packed with dry ice to regulate the&#13;<br \/>\ntemperature, enabling its use in locations that lack the physical&#13;<br \/>\ninfrastructure to otherwise maintain the required temperature. Temperature&#13;<br \/>\ntrackers equipped with sophisticated GPS technology are also packed within each&#13;<br \/>\nthermal shipper box to provide full visibility throughout the shipment&#8217;s entire&#13;<br \/>\njourney. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As COVID-19 continues to&#13;<br \/>\ndevastate lives and livelihoods, the vaccines represent hope for a better&#13;<br \/>\n2021,&#8221; said Julian Neo, Managing Director of DHL Express Malaysia and&#13;<br \/>\nBrunei. &#8220;Organising their distribution to so many people in such a short&#13;<br \/>\ntime will be an extremely complex operation that we are well-equipped and proud&#13;<br \/>\nto contribute to. Since the onset of the pandemic, DHL Express has leveraged&#13;<br \/>\nour broad experience and expertise to help maintain the integrity of the&#13;<br \/>\nhealthcare supply chain, ensuring vital supplies and protective equipment reach&#13;<br \/>\ncommunities and medical stakeholders in need.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p class=\"Default\">More than 9,000 life sciences and healthcare specialists work across&#13;<br \/>\nDHL&#8217;s dedicated global network so that pharmaceutical, medical devices,&#13;<br \/>\nclinical trials and research organisations, wholesalers and distributors, as&#13;<br \/>\nwell as hospitals and healthcare providers are connected across the value chain&#13;<br \/>\nand through digitalisation, from clinical trials to point of care, and every&#13;<br \/>\nstep in between.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p class=\"Default\">DHL&#8217;s portfolio for the healthcare industry includes 150+ pharmacists,&#13;<br \/>\n20+ clinical trials depots, 100+ certified stations, 160+ GDP-qualified&#13;<br \/>\nwarehouses, 15+ GMP-certified sites, 135+ medical express sites, and a&#13;<br \/>\ntime-definite international express network covering over 220 countries and&#13;<br \/>\nterritories. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p class=\"Default\">&#13;<br \/>\nOn a global scale, logistics providers are challenged to establish medical supply chain rapidly to&#13;<br \/>\ndeliver vaccines of unprecedented amount of more than 10 billion doses&#13;<br \/>\nworldwide&#8211;also in regions with less developed logistics infrastructures,&#13;<br \/>\nwhere approximately 3 billion people live.
