On the subject of vaccination, owing to complex issues connected to vaccine refusal and vaccine hesitancy, the pharmacist is seen as a professional figure in the health sector who is qualified to improve social accountability with the aim of increasing the consent. In order to provide accurate information, Law no. 119/2007 has confirmed the central role of the pharmacist in the promotion of prophylactic vaccination, explicitly stating under art. 2 that the Ministry will be able to count on the collaboration of pharmacists as well as general practitioners and paediatricians. Pharmacists are pinpointed as new professional figures who could assist the national health service in its vaccine awareness and administration campaigns. Art. 5 comma 1 of Law no.119/2017 states that to meet vaccine goals, each Region will be able to allow vaccines to be booked through the Italian booking system (CUP) and administered free-of-charge in authorized pharmacies.
