E-drug: Drug donations (cont) --------------------------------------------- Dear E-druggers: I'm responding to Dr. Passmore's report of dumping of inappropriate donated drugs in a major PNG hospital. Clearly this needs to be stopped. To end it, it is essential identify the source or sources of these donations and educate (if that is the proper term) the donors. As Dr. Passmore says, inappropriate donations may be made with good intent, and if that is the case, people who mean well will stop when they learn that they cause more trouble than good. We need to reach those people and suggest more constructive ways to show their solidarity with people in need. I wonder if Dr. Passmore would suggest a person to contact at the hospital he visited so that we can begin the task? James B.
