KUWAIT CITY, Dec 11: Minister of Health, Dr. Ahmed Al-Awadi, announced an electronic link has been established between 117 primary health care centers to organize and control the dispensing of medicines and prevent waste, if any, as well as linking the four hospitals – Jahra, Farwaniya, Jaber Al-Ahmed and the Mubarak Al-Kabeer, reports Al-Rai daily. Al-Awadi stressed that the issue of drug security “is a ‘red line’ and is our first priority, noting that the ministry is working around the clock to provide medicines.”

He added more than one committee has been formed in warehouse management and health officials to work around the clock to provide medicines, indicating that he and the senior ministry officials visited six public hospitals including the accident and general surgery departments to see the process of dispensing medicines in emergency pharmacies and the availability of alternatives for them.
