Abstract

Drug dispensers in community pharmacies possessed a good level of knowledge regarding COVID-19 vaccination; however, gaps in attitude and vaccine uptake persisted. Strengthening educational campaigns through professional associations, utilizing digital platforms for information dissemination, and integrating vaccine promotion into continuing professional development programs can enhance their role in public health response efforts.
