Keep ‘em cool

Immunotherapy allergens and vaccines are kept in the 35th Medical Operations Squadron immunization clinic’s refrigerator and, for most vaccines, are kept between 35 and 46 degrees Fahrenheit, while live vaccines, for instance the flu vaccine, must be kept frozen at 5 degrees Fahrenheit or cooler at Misawa Air Base, Japan, Jan. 14, 2016. In addition to their vaccination offerings, the clinic offers immunotherapy, which is a type of allergen treatment designed to boost the body’s natural defenses by inducing, enhancing or suppressing an immune response.
