During the upcoming vaccination campaign against flu and Covid-19, pharmacies in Portugal will receive €3.15 for each vaccine they administer. This amount serves as compensation to support health institutions in distributing the necessary vaccines.

The measure aims to facilitate the vaccination process, enhancing accessibility for the public by ensuring that pharmacies can actively participate in vaccine administration. The funds allocated for this payment come from the budget of the Central Administration of Health.

The initiative has been announced across various media outlets, underscoring the importance of pharmacies in the national healthcare system, particularly during critical times like vaccination campaigns.

The expectation is that this compensation will encourage pharmacies to collaborate with health authorities, thus improving service delivery to the public during the campaign.
