The awarded vaccines will support adult immunization programs across state health departments, large city programs, and U.S. territories. The contract requires adherence to specific conditions, including a minimum shelf life of 12 months for vaccines and strict temperature controls during transit. Orders will be facilitated through the Vaccine Tracking System (VTrckS), with processes established to ensure fair opportunity for contractors based on clinical appropriateness, local advisory recommendations, and available funding. Key considerations also include restrictions on vaccine use solely for immunization purposes for adults aged 19 and older, and explicit prohibitions against resale or free distribution.
