We’ll be there! Your pharmacist, your vaccine provider

Written By Tara Beecher, M Pharm

At Good Price Pharmacy Warehouse, our biggest health campaign of the year is the flu vaccination program. Last year Good Price pharmacists vaccinated over 30,000 patients! This was during a time when Australia was in lockdown due to the pandemic. Of course, we are really proud that our community pharmacists continued to provide health care throughout the lockdown period including flu vaccination. Since evidence supports the very real and positive effects vaccination has on community health, pharmacists have strongly recommended vaccination since long before we were able to administer them.  Each year, pharmacists within our pharmacies vaccinate record numbers of patients against flu.

Most states and territories continue to broaden the scope of vaccinations pharmacists can administer. This year, the federal government have trusted community pharmacies to not only vaccinate against flu but also, to be instrumental in the national COVID-19 vaccine rollout. Good Price Pharmacy Warehouse is very excited to contribute to the largest vaccination and public health campaign that Australia has ever seen.
