The Board of Pharmacy held its regularly scheduled meeting on September 24. The agenda included a discussion of the September 17 meeting to approve a revision of the State Pharmacist Prescribing Protocol for COVID 19 and Influenza Vaccines Ages 5 and Up. The Prescribing Protocol includes:
- The purpose of updating this protocol is to remove requirements that COVID vaccines are only administered based on ACIP recommendation. Essentially removing the tie to ACIP.
- Technicians will still be able to administer vaccines
