  • Mock drill simulates Colorado's arrival of first Covid-19 vaccines.LOVELAND SKI AREA, COLORADO - NOVEMBER 8: A convoy of vehicles, one containing a shipment of mock Covid-19 vaccines, led by Colorado State Patrol officers, makes its way west on I-70 heading to Vail on December 8, 2020 near Loveland Ski Area, Colorado. With the state expecting its first shipment of a COVID-19 vaccine in a matter of days, the state health department ran an exercise to see how ready it is to take on such a mass vaccination campaign. The Pfizer vaccine, which is the first shot expected to gain federal approval, will be difficult for the state to distribute as it needs to be stored at sub-zero temperatures and requires two shots. The Colorado Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management held a dry run or drill of receiving the vaccines in a thermal shipping container at Denver International Airport, using a courier car to take the vaccines to Vail Health Hospital and then the path the vaccines will follow once at the hospital from the pharmacy to a patient receiving the vaccine.

  • Mock drill simulates Colorado's arrival of first Covid-19 vaccines.VAIL, COLORADO - NOVEMBER 8: Vail Health Hospital employee health nurse Diane Schmidt holds up a mock Covid-19 vaccine vial at the hospital on December 8, 2020 in Vail, Colorado. With the state expecting its first shipment of a COVID-19 vaccine in a matter of days, the state health department ran an exercise to see how ready it is to take on such a mass vaccination campaign. The Pfizer vaccine, which is the first shot expected to gain federal approval, will be difficult for the state to distribute as it needs to be stored at sub-zero temperatures and requires two shots. The Colorado Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management held a dry run or drill of receiving the vaccines in a thermal shipping container at Denver International Airport, using a courier car to take the vaccines to Vail Health Hospital and then the path the vaccines will follow once at the hospital from the pharmacy to a patient receiving the vaccine.
