Its not easy to stock up on your meds! IF you can get some scripts early, def consider doing so for really necessary meds. And not just in the USA - any meds using ingredients from China and go via the US or made by US companies could be affected too

EU countries turn a blind eye to non-Europeans' struggles for medicines
Published: 29th January 2024
Today, EU countries agreed on a renewed EU global health strategy - the EU’s global vision for funding and international cooperation in relation to health.

In response, Oxfam EU health expert, Piotr Kolczynski, said:

“In the EU’s Health Commissioner's own words, where you live should not determine whether you live or die. But EU countries only pay heed to these words within Europe’s borders. In the rest of the world, the EU is playing the industry's game and undermining the right to health of the world's poorest people.

“This new strategy shows that EU countries turn a blind eye to the unequal access to vaccines and medicines, which led to millions of preventable deaths from COVID-19 and other diseases. Their silence on patents and refusal to share technology or know-how shows zero learning from the pandemic. This approach is a barrier for poorer countries that want to foster manufacturing and control medical supplies.

“Nice-sounding words do nothing to challenge a system increasingly captured by commercial interests and one that puts profits before patients. This EU strategy does nothing to bring us closer to a world where everyone can see a doctor and get treated on time.” oxfam.org/en/press-releases/eu #access2meds #pandemictreaty #COVID19 #EUpol
