Delivering the first wave of COVID-19 vaccines

We are utilizing our SenseAware ID monitoring technology and our Priority Alert service to track vaccine shipments as they move through our FedEx Express network in the U.S. And we have dedicated customer support agents who are monitoring vaccine shipments, ready to intervene should issues such as weather, traffic congestion or customs clearance cause delay and threaten delivery times.
