Reminder: Beyond-Use Date vs. Expiration Date
The expiration date is determined by the manufacturer as to when the COVID-19 vaccine is no longer acceptable to administer to patients, regardless of storage condition. The beyond-use date is the last day/time that the COVID-19 vaccine can be safely used after it has been transitioned between storage states (thawed, refrigerated, etc.) or altered (diluted, drawn up for administration, etc.) for patient use. The beyond-use date replaces the manufacturer’s expiration date but never extends it. Providers should properly dispose of the vaccine on whichever date/time comes first. For further information, please see Reporting & Disposal of Nonviable Doses.
