Queensland community pharmacies to join Covid fight this week – state-wide
The Pharmacy Guild of Australia, Queensland Branch’s Acting President, Chris Owen, has welcomed today’s announcement that over 200 metropolitan community pharmacies in Queensland will be able to deliver COVID-19 vaccinations beginning this week.
“This news could not have come at a better time,” said Mr. Owen, “we’ve had 131 community pharmacies in regional and out-metro areas rolling out the COVID-19 vaccine; at the end of this week, we should be able to offer access to community members right across Queensland.”
“I’d like to thank both the Federal Government and Queensland Government for securing 150,000 extra AstraZeneca doses for community pharmacies; this will hopefully mean everyone who is currently on a waiting list to get their COVID-19 vaccination will now have the opportunity to do so,” said Mr. Owen.
