Delegates at our recent online seminar Containing COVID-19: Containerisation’s Role in Global Vaccine Logistics joined us for a busy day of panel discussions, networking and Q&A as we discussed the complexities of global vaccine logistics and the role that containers will play as vaccination programmes roll out across the globe.
