[e-drug] Help with identifying the most recent EMLs from the WHO EMRO region countries

E-DRUG: Help with identifying the most recent EMLs from the WHO EMRO region countries
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear colleagues,

A student in our department, Hedieh Mehrtash is making a comparative analysis for cardiovascular essential medicines on national EMLs in the WHO EMRO region, and we would like to see if she is using the latest National EMLs that are available. The problem she faces is that she is not sure if she has the most recent EML for some countries and if she is missing EMLs from other countries in the region. She has listed the EML she has and their years. Please send her directly any more recent or missing EMLs from the region.
Her e-mail is hediehm@bu.edu<mailto:hediehm@bu.edu> .

Below is a list of EMLs currently procured online from the WHO repository, essential medicine documents portal and Ministry of Health websites:

She would be able to send anyone who is interested an electronic copy of her study when it is completed.
I hope that people from the countries and WHO offices will be able to help her.
