Dear e-druggers,
The Lancet Commission on Essential Medicines is also collecting information on all national medicine policies. We have started with the WHO data-base, we have collected additional information from websites and google-searches; and now there still remain some gaps and questions.
Can each e-drug reader please check in the list below for her/his country, and see whether some information on their national medicine policies is missing?
Responses can be sent to Hans Hogerzeil at <h.v.hogerzeil@umcg.nl> or <hans.hogerzeil@bluewin.ch>.
NB: Please do not reply to e-drug
Many thanks for your assistance in getting this information complete once and for all.
Best regards,
Hans Hogerzeil
Professor of Global Health, University of Groningen
