New TagAlerts® in vaccine deliveries

New TagAlerts® in vaccine deliveries

18 April, 2023

The temperature monitoring device (TagAlert®) used in vaccine deliveries is changing.

What is changing?
The current TagAlert® has a ‘Start’ button, where the new TagAlert® has a ‘Start/Stop’ button.
Providers will be required to 'Stop' the TagAlert® on receipt of delivery. Further instruction will be provided with each vaccine delivery.
The transition to the new TagAlerts will occur in late-April to early-May
