Revaccination management of a large cohort of pediatric patients following a potential lapse in cold storage.

Introduction: In a pediatric clinic in California (US), 3823 patients were vaccinated with potentially-compromised vaccines following lapses in cold storage chain management between February 2014 and April 2015. A revaccination program was initiated in May 2015. Families were contacted by mail and encouraged to discuss follow-up options with their care team, namely: revaccination, serological testing and/or revaccination, or no further action.
