Deputy Minister of Health Edem Adamanov has provided reassurance that there will be no shortage of medicines in Ukraine following the destruction of a major pharmaceutical warehouse by the aggressor. The incident targeted one of the two largest pharmaceutical distributors, JV Optima-Pharm, raising concerns about the supply chain for essential medications.
Adamanov emphasized that the remaining pharmaceutical distributor, along with domestic production facilities, is expected to maintain the supply of necessary drugs. The government has also pledged to monitor the situation closely to prevent any potential disruptions in the healthcare sector.
While the attack on the warehouse has raised concerns about the stability of the supply chain, Adamanov maintains that the healthcare system remains resilient. The minister’s statement comes amid ongoing efforts to secure and stabilize critical infrastructure in the face of continuous threats.
