It is relatively easy to replace, reduce, or eliminate thimerosal as a preservative in single and multi-dose vaccines that are widely used in most industrialised countries. However, multi-dose vials used for vaccinations in the Global South must contain a preservative to prevent vaccine contamination in the absence of refrigeration. The World Health Organization says thimerosal containing multi-dose vaccines are necessary in these countries because single-dose vaccines are more expensive and often require refrigeration.

Notably, this is from a site that is against Hg in vaccines. But it appears refrigeration is probably standard in developed countries.
