NexLeaf Cold chain monitoring to ensure vaccines given are safe and effective Vaccines not kept between 2°C and 8°C lose efficacy 56% of cold chain equipment in low- and middle-income countries is poorly functioning or non-functional A 2013 WHO study in India showed that around 75% of freeze-sensitive vaccines had been exposed to freezing by the time they made it through the supply chain. Solution Results Identify chronically failing fridges. Remotely diagnose certain common causes of fridge failure using temperature data signatures. Verify fixes conducted remotely or in person by following temperature data closely after a fridge repair.
