Vaxess is a venture capital and Gates Foundation-backed company that is developing vaccine patches. Their mission is to significantly increase access to vaccines — instead of vaccines having to be shipped in cold storage and administered via a shot, these patches can be shipped in the mail and used from the comfort of people's homes.
