Question 7545 — pharmacy and medications

Summary

The trial of vaccination against seasonal flu by community pharmacists began in October 2017 in two pilot regions (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and Nouvelle Aquitaine). It was marked by strong enthusiasm among pharmacists and very broad support from the public. Nearly 5,000 pharmacists are involved and nearly 160,000 vaccinations have been carried out. An evaluation report from this first year of experimentation will be submitted to Parliament very soon. It was decided, in view of these very good results, to extend this experiment for the year 2018-2019, to two additional regions, namely Hauts-de-France and Occitanie. Finally, article 39 of the draft social security financing law for 2019 currently under discussion in Parliament provides for the generalization of influenza vaccination by pharmacists for 2019-2020 flu season.
