As the COVID-19 vaccine launch is imminent, health authorities, pharmaceutical companies, and hospitals are struggling to prevent vaccine theft.
According to the Wall Street Journal on the 21st of the local time, Pfizer and other anti-coronavirus manufacturers are planning to attach GPS software to closely track the vaccine distribution process, and to deploy fake anti-virus trucks with nothing loaded to trick thieves.
The vaccine is kept in a secret place until it is delivered to a hospital.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is planning to accompany members of the Department of Justice's Federal Sheriff's Office to transport the vaccine once approval to market the COVID-19 vaccine is granted.
Vaccine development leaders such as Pfizer and Modena are expected to receive emergency approval for use as early as November or December, but the initial supply is expected to be very limited.
