E-drug: Brain drain of pharmacists (cont'd) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- It is my strongly held belief that all university graduates, in every field, should be required to work for 2-3 years in their field at locations where their government feels the most need. In the USA this might mean a pharmacist working on an Indian reservation, in the UK, a pharmacist might be required to work in a hospital in Orkney, etc. Consider it national service - the repayment of a debt to society; but after that time period, then an individual's life is his own, and he/she should be free to go wherever in the world they want.
