Pharmacists Society of the State of New York (PSSNY) responds to Governor Hochul signing legislation today authorizing pharmacists to provide CDC-approved immunizations to patients eighteen years or older (S4807A /A6476A).
STATEMENT
“We applaud Governor Hochul for signing an important bill authorizing New York’s pharmacists to administer CDC-approved vaccines. This law reinforces the essential role that pharmacists have played keeping New Yorkers healthy and safe amid the Covid-19 pandemic, and underscores the urgent need for Governor Hochul to sign the entire bipartisan Pharmacy Rescue Package to ensure that independent pharmacies survive to continue providing patients with critical healthcare services.”
