GMOA warns of a possible scarcity of medicine

Colombo (News1st): General Secretary of the Government Medical Officers Association Dr. Haritha Aluthge speaking at a press conference stated that there is a major shortage of drugs in hospitals throughout the country. He noted that they warned the authorities regarding this issue in June and July 2018. Dr. Aluthge noted that Minister Rajith Senaratne has rejected their claims as completely false. He said the minister mentioned that he has a special software on his desktop computer which can identify any drug shortage around the country and immediately correct it. If so he questioned; "Where is the computer? Where is the software?" Dr. Aluthge pointed out that Minister Rajitha Senaratne is still here, but the computer and the software are missing.
