“…Koster et al demonstrated that emerging patient-centric pharmacist services have been deleteriously impacted by the pandemic and urged leaders to embrace tele-pharmacy even post-pandemic in a changed world, with all that new models of delivery entail. 28 Amariles et al worked with researchers outside of pharmacy to project future numbers of cases, morbidity, and hospitalizations not merely to project numbers but for anticipation of their country's needs for pharmacists to continue delivering the necessary care to patients with and without COVID-19 and help ensure adequate supply chain of pharmacological therapies for weeks and even months into the future. 29 …”

Across the globe, pharmacists on the frontline continue to fight COVID-19 and its continuously evolving physical, mental, and economic consequences armed by their knowledge, professionalism, and dedication. Their need for credible scientific evidence to inform their practice has never been more urgent. Despite the exponentially increasing number of publications since the start of the pandemic, questions remain unanswered, and more are created, than have been resolved by the increasing number of publications. A panel of leading journal editors was convened by the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) Pharmacy Practice Research Special Interest Group to discuss the current status of COVID-19 related research, provide their recommendations, and identify focal points for pharmacy practice, social pharmacy, and education research moving forward. Key priorities identified spanned a wide range of topics, reflecting the need for good quality research to inform practice and education. The panel insisted that a foundation in theory and use of rigorous methods should continue forming the basis of inquiry and its resultant papers, regardless of topic area. From assessing the clinical and cost effectiveness of COVID-19 therapies and vaccines to assessing different models of pharmaceutical services and education delivery, these priorities will ensure that our practice is informed by the best quality scientific evidence at this very challenging time.

“…Home delivery is aimed at keeping at home patients at increased risk of COVID-19 infection, such as those with chronic diseases. It helps keep patients and customers away from the pharmacy, which could potentially spread the virus among pharmacists (Bukhari et al 2020;Cooper 2020;Koster et al 2020).…”

This article discusses the opportunities of information and communication technologies for providing pharmaceutical care in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The global COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated a reorientation of the concept of providing health care to large-scale implementation of information technologies to improve the quality of medical and pharmaceutical services for the population. It had a significant impact on pharmacy, which necessitated changes in the management of pharmaceutical care for patients. Rapid and urgent measures were taken by the pharmacists, who found themselves at the forefront. Telepharmacy has proven to be a successful solution in the fight against the virus in the conditions of physical distance. The introduction of modern information and communication technologies worldwide will create significant advantages for more efficient use of resources and management of pharmaceutical care.
