Police are investigating after an anti-vaxxer allegedly tried to run down a Canberra pharmacist after spending an hour raging about COVID-19 vaccines.

Pharmacist, Honor Penprase, says she was forced to jump for her life as a middle-aged woman accelerated towards her in a car park “with intent” last Friday.

Ms Penprase says the woman first approached the Wanniassa pharmacy as she greeted people arriving for their vaccination, who at that time waited outside in an arcade until their appointment.

The woman then demanded a list of every single ingredient in all the COVID-19 vaccines.
