E-DRUG: African Medicines Policy needed (2)
------------------------------------------
Great idea! We must however start logically. I think WHO (AFRO, EMRO and
HQ) should get on board early, if not lead the process. I imagine that the
first port of call is an assessment of the current situation; which African
countries have and which do not have a formal medicines policy?
My initial comment , in the meantime, is one of caution. We must not let
this important ideal be driven by political circumstances alone but,
imperatively, by relevance and practicality.
