A single dose aerosol chamber is used with a dispensing apparatus by users to take a chamber, fill the chamber with an aerosolized vaccine, and dispose of used chambers. A display provides instructions to encourage prompt inhalation by the user from a dispensed and filled chamber. The station allows very fast administration of vaccines to large numbers of people. The aerosol dispenser apparatus detects the chamber is in correct position and delivers a pre-determined dose of aerosol. The chamber has a nebulizer delivery port optimized for delivery of aerosol into the chamber container and to act as a vent during inhalation via the inhalation port.
A single dose aerosol chamber for administration of a single dose of an aerosol from a nebulizer, the chamber comprising a container, a nebulizer delivery port configured to engage a nebulizer outlet conduit, and an inhalation port for user inhalation of contents of the container, the container being configured for receiving aerosol via the nebulizer delivery port, and mixing of the aerosol with gas in the container for delivery via the inhalation port.
