NH Executive Order Allows Pharmacists to Administer COVID-19 Tests

In New Hampshire, pharmacists now have the authority to administer COVID-19 tests, reports nhpr.

This new power comes from a Governor Chris Sununu Executive Order in which he states that it will increase the availability of testing in the state. Pharmacists at pharmacies with the appropriate certification and state laboratory license will be able to administer the tests.

Other pharmacies who wish to perform COVID-19 testing can apply for a waiver from the state health department, if they meet health and safety standards.
