HAVANA, July 27 (Carmelo Díaz Fernández, APSIC) - Hundreds of
bottles and jars containing medicines needed elsewhere are sitting past their
use-by dates on the shelves of the Ministry of Public Health warehouse at Los
Maceos, Guantánamo, said sources who work in the public health arena and
did not want to be identified.
The medicines, whose names are well-known to Cubans who need them and spend
whole days going from one pharmacy to the next looking for them, are wasting
away because of a lack of inventory control, said the sources.
