Ranchuelo pharmacies run out of asthma medications
RANCHUELO, Cuba, February 14 (Félix
Reyes Gutiérrez, Cubanacán
Press / www.cubanet.org) - When Ismary Pozo
went looking for asthma medications for
his daughter February 9, he quickly found
out all three pharmacies in Ranchuelo had
run out of them.
Pozo called pharmacies in the adjoining
towns of Esperanza and San Juan de las Yeras,
and found they were also out of stock.
"I'll have to buy the medicines in
the black market, and pay whatever they
ask, but my daughter needs it, especially
in winter," said Pozo.
His six-year-old daughter suffers from
asthma since birth.
