A new study has found that although three-quarters of Ontario pharmacists can administer injections “vaccination deserts” do exist, areas with little to no access to pharmacist-administered vaccination sites.
To identify these areas, researchers at the University of Waterloo and Laurentian University mapped regions across Ontario. It was found that most community pharmacists authorized to administer injections are found in the urban region of Southern Ontario, confirming there is a geographic discrepancy.
