Terrence Mawawa| MDC Alliance deputy treasurer Charlton Hwende has urged the government to address the acute shortage of drugs as a matter of urgency.

Hwende bemoaned the fact that the poor would be most affected by the shortage of drugs.

“The acute shortage of drugs in Hospitals must be addressed urgently before we start losing lives. The poor are most affected as they don’t have access to

money that is required to purchase these drugs at pharmacies,” tweeted Hwende.
