@CHEyork @KarlClaxton Interesting findings. This may go a long way to address some of the issues concerning the "generic paradox". Well Karl Claxton and your team of researchers.

Hi Michael, I disagree with Prof Bhattacharya's general statement that covid-19 is a disease for the poor and minority. I live in Ghana and the situation here is entirely different. The poor don't wear the mask as often as the rich and the latter are less affected.

He died so BLACKS might live and live more abundantly.
The incident that occurred last year happened for a reason. Policeman Chauvin (like Judas in the case of Jesus Christ) was just an instrument used. Forgive and forget Chauvin. BLACKS have WON.

@adherence_ispe In my part of the world financial barriers also affect adherence to treatment, especially poor people on antiretroviral therapy.

@adherence_ispe This patient-physician-health system although good, is not complete. I work with adolescents some of whom had HIV through vertical transmission. The questions some of them ask include why they should take medicines when it is no fault of theirs to have HIV. This affects adherence

@adherence_ispe Thank you. #adherencejc

@adherence_ispe They used the Elsevier Gold Standard to define their drug-drug interactions. I think this was good.

[Daniel Ankrah @danielankrah45]

@adherence_ispe @GretaBushnell They only mentioned that adherence by drug class was calculated by tabulating the percentage of all prescriptions in the class in which the drug was detected. #adherencejc

[Daniel Ankrah @danielankrah45]

@adherence_ispe I realise that the EMR database that was used includes both prescription and OTC data. This is interesting to me because in my part of the world existing health databases do not include any information on OTC drugs. I want to know more about how this happens. #adherencejc
