While there are many researches which are investigating the issues regarding the proper storage of vaccines there is a scarcity of local studies on the practices of healthcare givers regarding vaccine storage and handling as the large amount of focus was placed on achieving immunization coverage rather than vaccine efficacy therefore this study would be helpful to fill the gaps in the existing literature and would develop an insight regarding proper maintenance of vaccine storage conditions and its handling in Pakistani context.
