In the developed countries such as the United States,Canada,and Australia,phar-macists play an important role not only in pharmacy services,but also in immunization and vaccine management. The American Pharmacists Association (APhA)has been training pharmacists in vaccine management since 1994. The American Hospital Pharmacist Association formulated the guidelines on the pharmacist′s role in immunization in 2003. Since then,the pharmacists began to involve in procurement, distribution,prescription,and immunization of vaccine. In recent years,the pharmacists in France, Australia,Canada,and other countries have been involving in immunization and vaccine management in succession,and even playing an important role in all aspects of vaccine management (such as procurement, storage,prescription and dispensing,vaccine consultation,immunization,vaccine adverse events reporting, public health education,and etc.). The experience of foreign pharmacists participating in immunization is worth learning.
