Pharmacare is once again on the policy agenda in Canada: there is a window of opportunity to improve the current situation.

This new IRPP study by Fiona Clement and Michael Law “National Pharmacare: Laying the Groundwork,” demonstrates how to get there.

I've read @WIRED since I was a teenager, so it's pretty cool to have them cover our @LancetGH analysis of drones. Kudos to @laxmevy for a great piece, @MPNisingizwe for leading this work, and @RBCRwanda for the great collaboration.

For the first time, there’s proof that drone blood services improve delivery speed and reduce waste. https://t.co/3Mn4xgblFY

[Mina T. @Mina__T]

Our newest paper led by the awesome @alison_mcclean in @CMAJ

Our original working title was "Failure to Launch" which is a great way coined by @myclaw to describe Canada's experience with #biosimilars so far.

[Carly Weeks @carlyweeks]

With #pharmacare back in the news, a reminder that every year, hundreds of thousands of Canadians can't afford/have trouble paying for their prescribed medications (which can cost the health system dearly in the long run). https://t.co/SSPjkvZHRM

Drones get blood to patients faster—and reduce waste: @ubcspph researchers partner with researchers in Rwanda 🇷🇼 https://t.co/52mekdXSq5 #NewsTip

[Mike Law @myclaw]

When Rwanda started using drones for blood delivery, it decreased delivery times and reduced product expiration. Great to be part of this study led by @MPNisingizwe including our friends at @RBCRwanda that was just published in @LancetGH. Full article: https://t.co/LPDBPqvRYs
