RESUMO
The availability of the first Covid-19 vaccine in December 2020 has led to a major reorganization of the pharmaceutical's activities in order to allow the rapid deployment of the vaccination throughout the country. This cross-functional and multi-professional vaccination campaign is characterized by many factors of complexity. Securing the circulation of these new vaccines was one of the crucial points, both in terms of specific storage conditions and compliance with good preparation and administration practices. The diversity of the actors involved, the nature of the centers practicing this vaccination, the emergency of the situation and the important quantity of vaccines dispensed have demonstrated the value of the support provided by the pharmaceutical team in order to limit the risk of errors. New tasks for the pharmacist and new challenges have emerged from this exceptional vaccination campaign. We would like to provide a feedback here.Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Masson SAS
