But maybe? Moderna said theirs can be held in storage for 30 days stable. [/quote] They built a brand new frozen storage facility in the region Had a contract to store ice cream Ice cream stores at -30 F All filled up and going great UNTIL Chinese Computer chips designed to go down to -20F Computers froze They had to abandon that facility - BUILT for FROZEN ICE CREAM CONTRACTS Standing empty ... empty parking lot - laid off employees How on earth are they gonna store VACCINES at -80F required or alternatively -30F the other companies They can’t even keep ICE CREAM COLD enough Anyone taking the jab Walk in with an ice cream cone If it melts while you are waiting The vaccine isn’t any good either And do they warm it sonit doesn’t freeze your veins and muscles ? Sounds risky [/quote] Couldnt they simply replace the inadequate computer chips and save the whole facility? Sounds like an awful waste. [/quote]
Original Message
I won't name the specific company, but they have 250+ sites across the country specializing in refrigerated and frozen storage and shipping. All sites systems are down and they've shut their gates so trucks can no longer enter to pickup product. I know this because I'm the supply chain director for a food company that sells refrigerated dairy products. We use this company as a third party logistics supplier and I'm completely unable to ship Thangsgiving orders from any of their sites across the country. I've got a rough day ahead of me workwise to figure out to mitigate any of this.
Be vigilant.
