Not more vending machines!



Warning on drug vending machines
: "Both the Pharmacists Guild and the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia say that allowing people to obtain prescription medicines from an ATM-style machine could be dangerous for patients."

An ATM dispenser for prescriptions? Why? We have doctors and pharmacists. Medication is something which needs to be handled on an individual basis. Might be convenient, but I do not think it is treating people. It's avoiding a treatment process. PROCESS not service.
