UNICEF has delivered 1,029 cold boxes and vaccine carriers to the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) to be dispatched to vaccination centres across the country.
"The cold boxes and carriers are used for keeping vaccines cold during transportation and at a controlled temperature all the way to point of vaccination," the organization explained in a statement.
It indicated that since the beginning of the national vaccination campaign in Libya, it has also delivered four cold rooms (up to 20 degrees below zero with a capacity of 20 cubic meters) to Misrata, Benghazi, Tripoli, and Sabha.
