Known Lot Batches with Expiration Dates, Pfizer, Moderna, Janssen ...
World's largest collection outside of the CDC
The spreadsheet: https://univaers.com/download/expiration_dates.csv
August 2023. Currently 3,800+ with expiration dates.
(Sinopharm and Sinovac are China).
* In Notes, I’m calling out 476 that I think are CPT control codes instead of Lot codes.
The collection includes known-good lots/batches without known expiration dates in part because the lot code cleaning relies on these, scoring candidate matches higher if present in the file, higher still if a known expiration date.
The few codes with -2 like 039K20-2A instead of 039K20A have been combined to their canonical form like 039K20A because usually the expiration dates are the same … with the theory that they are the same material but a company indicator along the lines of a second run or other mundane operation while identical content. If one disagrees and can find a significant difference between them in the harm done, this decision can be reconsidered. For now, it should make any batch analysis more meaningful.
Expiration dates are often extended 60 days, the file contains last-known. Recently, some have been extended an entire year.
Lot/Batch Code/Expiration Date Lookups
Pfizer/BioNTech https://lotexpiry.cvdvaccine.com/
Moderna https://eua.modernatx.com/covid19vaccine-eua/providers/vial-lookup
Janssen was https://vaxcheck.jnj/ (no longer accessible, noticed August 2023)
Novavax http://us.novavaxcovidvaccine.com/hcp
Lot codes on those sites appear and then disappear over time.
What do the various lot patterns mean?
Appreciate it if someone would call Pfizer and Moderna and ask what the significance is. Moderna batches like 3000489 are outside of USA for example.
It took tons of time. I felt like my soul was dying the whole time. A little bit of kindness please.
If you have information about any of this to add, email me
Thanks for sharing, I appreciate it. (Do something relaxing or fun. This is draining on the soul! )
