If you’re interested in how the average person is dealing with healthcare, volunteer to work at a pharmacy for a while. You’ll be the one called when there’s no refills, need an rx for a UTI,contraceptive, cold sore,shingles,vaccines,Lyme prophylaxis, work with the nursing home1/

Today’s Covid clinic.. when you want to limit indoor occupants but Victoria decides it’s winter. 15 minutes around the fire pit post Covid booster for monitoring! Great group of eligible patients in Oak Bay today! #covidbooster #bcpharmacy #Pharmacist

[White Coat Black Art @cbcwhitecoat]

Pharmacists are doing a lot more due to the pandemic. They give COVID vaccines, and are poised to expand even more post-pandemic. @cbcwhitecoat talks to @kgrindrod, @disasterpharmy and Owl Drug’s David Cai. Encore episode of @cbcwhitecoat. https://t.co/057r8LxOyt

Been waiting awhile for this.. first covid clinic done 😃 love to see the smiling faces of 40+ year olds receiving their vaccine in the pharmacy today!

[CBC British Columbia @cbcnewsbc]

They're fighting COVID-19 on the front lines, but pharmacy students helping with vaccinations are not being paid the same as other health care workers. Now they're speaking out, asking for pay equity. @evacsenge has details.

[Jason Cridge @CridgeJason]

Let’s examine the BC GOVS vaccine roll out to pharmacies: 14,000 AZ that BC has all expire this Friday
Tues- suspends AZ use in under 55 population, Wed- tells public that pharmacies will admin AZ before they notify the pharmacies involved, Wed night- Mckesson steps up to 1/3

#bcpharmacists pay attention to what’s going on. Pharmacy students are getting their legs cut out from under them. Taken with permission from leejohnny_ a pharmacy student on IG. There needs to be leadership in our profession to advocate for student pharmacists.

[Global BC @GlobalBC]

As B.C.'s mass vaccination program continues to ramp up, pharmacists are wondering why they've been shut out of the process. https://t.co/qjFbMs5VSv
