With World Tuberculosis Day on March 24, tuberculosis survivors and activists are sounding the alarm about a possible shortage of medications. The concerns are sparked by an emergency procurement tender posted on the Central Medical Services Society website.
Notably, Mumbai`s request in this tender is substantial, requiring 9,00,000 strips of 4-fixed-dose combination (FDC) medicine and 18,00,000 strips of 3-FDC medicines, each containing 28 tablets.
