COVID-19 VACCINE
WASTE DISPOSAL GUIDE
The following represents general recommendations for managing waste from administering the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine. It’s important to note that these are general guidelines, and you should always comply with local/state laws, CDC guidelines, and vaccine manufacturer's guidelines for vaccine waste disposal.
Syringes, Needles, and Empty Vaccine Vials:
These items should be placed in an FDA approved sharps container
Contaminated PPE:
Contaminated personal protective equipment (PPE) such as masks, gloves, and gowns should be disposed of in red bag, biohazardous waste box/containers.
Vial Trays:
If your facility is administering the Pfizer vaccine, the vial trays it is stored on should be disposed of in the red bag, biohazardous waste box/container.
Non-Contaminated PPE:
PPE items that have not been contaminated can be disposed of in the trash. Other non-contaminated items such as cotton balls, alcohol wipes, bandages, and polystyrene (Styrofoam®) can also be disposed of in the trash unless there are specific instructions from the vaccine manufacturer stating otherwise.
