Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine

Happy New year! I have a quick question regarding Moderna COVID Vaccine.

ASHP just shared that "FDA Approved the Use of Every Obtainable Dose from Moderna’s COVID-19 Vaccine Vials. In some cases, providers may be able to obtain an 11th dose from a Moderna vaccine vial, and this may be used if it is truly a full dose. Whether an 11th dose is obtainable depends, in part, on the type of syringes and needles used to withdraw doses from the vials."

Can anyone please share with me if they have success obtaining 11 doses from Moderna vaccine?

Are you guys use low dead-space syringes/small gauge needles? if so can you please share with me what are those are?

What are the strategies your institution developed to ensure obtaining "every obtainable dose”

Thanks in advance for all your help.

Sincerely,
Mohamed
