Bankrupt Pak
to witness terrible days
With Pakistan already bankrupt, the country is likely to face a severe shortage of medicines after India took a slew of stern decisions, including suspension of all forms of trade. It’s pertinent to know that 30 to 40 percent of raw materials for medicines goes from India to Pakistan. This includes active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and various advanced therapeutic products.
However, Pakistani health officials are concerned that the closure of trade could severely impact the pharmaceutical sector.
The Pakistan Drug Regulatory Authority has not issued any formal notification regarding the impact of restrictions on the pharmaceutical sector, according to a Geo news report.
The authorities have implemented emergency measures to prevent a shortage of medicines. As per senior official they are considering alternative methods to meet their medication needs.
The authority has intensified efforts to find alternative sources from China, Russia, and several European countries, aiming to ensure a continuous supply of anti-rabies vaccines, anti-snake venom, cancer medications, and more. Meanwhile, sources from the industry and health experts have cautioned about the immediate measures.

Pak closes airspace to
Indian aircraft
After Pakistan closed its airspace to Indian aircraft, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) issued an advisory to airline companies. They have been instructed to maintain provisions of additional food, water, and medicines.
The advisory states that special meals like vegetarian or medical diets must be provided upon passenger request.
Due to the closure of airspace, the route for international flights has changed, which has increased the travel time.
Passengers must also be informed about the additional travel time due to the route change before the journey begins.
