Make People Aware
Of TB

Tuberculosis is an airborne disease. It is the second most common cause of death from infectious diseases. TB is killing almost 2 million people per annum. It is curable, yet, it has annexed the world.
Even though TB is a curable disease free of cost but people living in underprivileged areas do not know about it. Due to this, they put their lives at risk. It is our collective duty to make people aware of TB and its treatment. The government should also build hospitals where needed.

Increase Medicines Supply

The general rule of the economy is that when supply is less than demand, commodity prices rise. But keep in mind, medicine is not a luxury consumer product. Human life and death depend on it. In this case, protecting the interests of the buyer is much more important. The country has not been in the grip of an epidemic for a year and a half. Outbreaks of dengue are currently associated with it. Besides, there are other diseases. The hospitals of the country are full of patients.
Naturally, the demand for medicines has increased. Many drug dealers are taking advantage of this. They have increased the prices of many essential medicines. The Department of Drug Administration says no drug has been raised in a year and a half. The drug companies are saying the same thing. So why are the sellers raising the prices of medicines and causing misery to the common people? Medicine is not a luxury consumer product. Human life and death depend on it. In this case, protecting the interests of the buyer is much more important.
