Question, which vaccine to choose given option.

Moderna has 100mg per dose and standard freezer storage

Pfizer has 30mg per dose and extreme cold chain storage.

Seems like there's more potential for Pfizer to spoil along logistics chain.

The shipping boxes are temperature monitored the whole time as mentioned in the article. After thawing, the vials are valid for ~5d. I don't see a bigger chance they spoil. I doubt I get to choose, but if, I would take one of the mRNA/LNP vaccines.
