 ====== 20.01. Vaccine Vial Monitoring (VVM) ======
+  * There used to be a comprehensive description of VVM on the WHO website, but, alas, no longer :-(.  We can resort to the  [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccine_vial_monitor|Wikipedia article on VVM]]
+  * As of August 2023, WHO has published a [[https://www.who.int/multi-media/details/vaccine-vial-monitor-(vvm)-infographic|VVM infographic]]. In case that is also removed from the WHO web site, we have stored it here:  {{ :cold_chain_equipment:vvm_graphic_final_color.pdf |VVM infographic}}
