Queensland Health Minister Steven Miles says “we are very confidant that we will one day have a vaccine and it will be incredibly important that we get that vaccine out as quickly as we can”. The health minister announced on Saturday the state would be amending its drug therapy program which would allow people easier access to emergency medications as well as widening the circumstances under which community pharmacists could substitute medications.
Mr Miles said the move was “most importantly” about making sure pharmacists will be able to, when we have a COVID-19 vaccine, be able to deliver that vaccine”. “That means that communities right across the state, everywhere in this state, will have very quick access to the vaccine when it comes,” he said. “We are very confident that we will one day have a vaccine and it will be incredibly important that we get that vaccine out as quickly as we can.
