Here is a story that illustrates well how invaluable Corona vaccines are: On Saturday, while residents waited for their turn to be vaccinated at the vaccine station set up at a community center in Sari, England, some of the workers noticed smoke emanating from the roof of the building.

They called the rescue and fire brigade and hurried to evacuate the building for fear of a fire.



But even before firefighters were able to contain the fire, one of the doctors returned to the building to extract from it the cooling chamber that contained the corona vaccines, the doctor dragged the refrigerator on his own out of the building and away from the flames.

A representative of the local rescue forces confirmed that all the vaccine doses that were in the building were safely rescued.

Smith added that she was one of the first to notice the smoke from the roof: "It came from the other side of the roof. The insulation material in the burned roof. "

Simultaneously with the call of the rescue forces, the workers of the place hurried in and evacuated the vaccinators and staff members who were inside.

"It was the middle of the day, so there were quite a few people there. But we managed to evacuate them all unscathed," she said.

A few weeks ago we reported here on another case of a medical staff whose resourcefulness prevented a waste of vaccines - when a team of warehouses got stuck in a traffic jam due to a snowstorm in Oregon on their way from one vaccination station to another.

The vaccine doses they were carrying were supposed to expire within a few hours so they decided to get out of the vehicle and vaccinate more drivers who were stuck in the same traffic jam.
