Divert samples

Sir, - The devastating earthquake has left thousands dead, leaving the living at the mercy of gnawing infectious diseases due to lack of clean water, food and injuries. To treat infectious diseases and septicaemia and protect the living, Gujarat needs unlimited medicine along with food and clothing.

In order to adequately supply medicine may I request all the pharmaceutical companies of India to divert all the samples which they give to doctors to Gujarat for a period of two months. Definitely with this noble gesture precious lives will be saved and all the Indian doctors will lend their prescribing support with the same enthusiasm without samples in the cause of national calamity.

Dr. Seema Devi,

Pondicherry
