was that the Pfizer vaccine was recently authorized to be stored (and can remain viable) for up to 30 days at regular refrigerator temps (vs the requirement for storage in ultra-low freezers) - https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-brief-fda-authorizes-longer-time-refrigerator-storage-thawed-pfizer-biontech-covid-19-vaccine

That now opens the door for personal physicians to stock the vaccine, which will be a benefit for getting it to pediatricians for the young ones (where the children would be more comfortable with a shot from their own doctor who would have given them other ones in the past)!
