I believe that temperature is achievable with fairly simply-insulated dry ice containers, in situations where mechanical cooling is not feasible.

I guess you should invest in dry ice manufacturing companies!

Yes. Pfizer have published info on their logistics, there are details in the wall st journal. Basic idea is a little box of ~1000 doses goes in a big box filled with enough dry ice for up to ten days. Average delivery time will be around 3.

dry ice manufacturing companies?

Do You mean the Co2 supply chain? We make a lot of carbonated beverages; there will likely be no shortage.

There is a glut in the CO2 supply - it is a byproduct of several industrial processes. (even before carbon capture for environmental reasons.)
