[e-drug] Retirement of Hans Hogerzeil from WHO

E-drug: Retirement of Hans Hogerzeil from WHO
................................................

Dear E-Druggers,

At the end of May, Hans Hogerzel will retire from WHO. In his many years of work to promote essential medicines he has impacted many within the E-Drug community. I would like to collect as many comments and recollections as possible from as many different people as I can to compile into a book to give to him at a planned retirement event on May 30th. I will also use some of these comments in a short article I have been asked to write for INRUD News.
So please send your contributions including photographs (one only) to me and to Anita Korinsek Porta (korinsekportaa@who.int) who will help me compile these materials.
Many thanks
Richard Laing
