Pharmacies around Malta are set to be restocked with HIV medication on Monday after emergency deliveries from Portugal and the UK arrived on Saturday, health authorities have confirmed.
A spokesperson for the Health Ministry told Times of Malta that stocks of HIV mediation were exhausted on Friday, however following intervention from the Central Processing and Supplies Unit, Mater Dei hospital is now “in a position to give stock to all the patients that are entitled and due”.
“As from Monday, all the concerned pharmacies will be supplied with adequate stock. This is in fact one of the novelties of the new system we are rolling out, which will also include new and more convenient medication, for which Malta is investing over €3 million,” the spokesperson said.
