25 April 2023 - More than 80% of Australians are opposed to Anthony Albanese’s plan to double the medicines a patient can purchase from July 1 if it leads to medicine shortages, according to new polling.
The new data comes as Pharmacy Guild of Australia national president Trent Twomey warned Labor’s intention to allow 60 day dispensing could lead to a “Hunger Games” stand-off, with some patients getting double the medicine they need while others go without.
