A Washington state senate bill would allow pharmacists to order and give all vaccinations without a doctor's order. Bill sponsor Senator Ann Rivers (R-Clark County) says the measure would expand access for all vaccinations by using pharmacies as distribution points. Pharmacists are already trained to give vaccines right now, but are limited to the flu and shingles vaccine. The bill would give a patient the ability to walk into their regular pharmacy and be assessed by the pharmacist without a doctor's note. The patient would then be able to receive any vaccine a doctor would otherwise administer. The bill is currently awaiting a hearing in the Health Care Committee. It would be the first of its kind in the nation, if passed.
