The first phase of a swine flu vaccination program trial conducted in Tasmania by the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia and the Department of Health and Human Services has proved popular with the community. Phase II of the pandemic vaccination program will now be rolled out to allow pharmacy-based clinics to support other elements of the swine flu vaccination program.
During Phase I last month, more than 2500 patients were vaccinated at five pharmacies by nurse immunisers in just one week.
Phase II of the trial will run Thursday March 25 to Saturday March 27 in the five original participating pharmacies. From Thursday April 8 to Saturday April 10 it will be rolled out to a limited number of additional pharmacies based on need and existing local service capacity.
"During Phase II the vaccination clinics will be clustered around after-school hours and weekends which proved to be the most popular times for patients to have their vaccinations during Phase I," Dr Jackson said
