Purpose of Including Pharmacist Occupations to PMSOL
The Australian Government decided to include pharmacists in PMSOL as support toward Australia’s COVID-19 Vaccine rollout. Currently, the Australian Government invites thousands of community pharmacies across Australia’s state and territory to join the Coronavirus Vaccine rollout. In addition, the supply of Coronavirus vaccine doses will be increasing over the coming weeks.
In response to these conditions, the Australian Government will support the pharmacies across Australia’s state and territory, including through the Skilled Migration Program, hoping more pharmacists will be invited to work in Australia and support the Coronavirus Vaccine rollout.
