Pharmacy Technicians would be able to provide better support and care for covid-19 recovery plans and more importantly patients, if able to administer and supply meds (including vaccinations) as named profession on PGD list - let��s just get on with this pls!
@President_APTUK
“I’m expanding who can legally vaccinate”
.
@MattHancock
tells
@peston
that the first people to receive a vaccine will be those most clinically vulnerable, older people and health care workers and that he’s expanding who can legally vaccinate.

@MattHancock
all worked up 👍 just need the legislation sorted, great opportunity to use the coronavirus act and avoid bureaucratic tape that could mean a missed opportunity for a potential workforce of 23,000 to support mass vaccination and more!
Pharmacy Technicians would be able to provide better support and care for covid-19 recovery plans and more importantly patients, if able to administer and supply meds (including vaccinations) as named profession on PGD list - let’s just get on with this pls!
