Community pharmacies could speed up vaccine rollout by at least three months

Australians could receive the COVID-19 vaccine three to six months earlier if community pharmacies assist in the rollout, according to Pharmacy Guild of Australia President Trent Twomey.

“We can accelerate the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccination strategy to the point where any Australian over the age of 16 who is eligible for a vaccine, wants a vaccine can receive both of their shots three to six months earlier,” he said.

More than 50 pharmacies in rural Queensland will begin administering the vaccine from today but so far only the Palaszczuk government is allowing pharmacists to administer the jab.

Mr Twomey told Sky News other states and territories have not yet opted to involve pharmacists in the rollout because they are “receiving poor advice from their risk averse, state-based bureaucracies”.

“There is no level of risk here that is elevated compared to general practice or compared to Queensland Health.

'Decentralised' rollout makes more sense than mass vaccination hubs

Pharmacy Guild of Australia President Trent Twomey says the rollout should be “decentralised” with the help of community pharmacies since it doesn’t make sense to have crowds flocking to vaccine hubs in the middle of a pandemic.

“I received a phone call this morning from one of my past presidents of the Pharmacy Guild in Victoria and he was driving to his pharmacy and he drove past the Exhibition Centre and said this is ridiculous,” he said.

“There is a line around the street for people lined up for a mass vaccination hub.

“You don’t have to be an epidemiologist to realise that creating big hubs of people where everyone is clustering in a pandemic of a highly infectious and contagious disease is just going to created further issues.

“We need a decentralised approach where we’re utilising the 6,000 general practices, the 5,000 pharmacies that have put their hands up and said let us do it”.

Online vaccine eligibility tool launches today for all Australians

Pharmacy Guild of Australia National Vice President Trent Twomey has detailed an online eligibility tool available to Australians from today to provide clarity on the COVID-19 vaccine rollout.

The website – which can be found at mycovidvax.com.au – explains the different phases of the rollout.

“Pharmacies all around Australia have been bombarded with questions about what do these phases mean, when can I get my vaccine, when can my family get their vaccine and that’s exactly what this tool will do,” Mr Twomey told Sky News.

“There’s just a level of anxiety and a level of confusion and it's exactly what this eligibility tool is trying to address.

“What people want to do is cut through the noise and cut through the confusion.”
