Anti Retroviral Drugs (ARD) has been stopped in Bihar

[Guest guest]

Dear Forum,

 

Greetings.

 

I got this news from reliable source of Bihar that ARD has been stopped there.

Approx 10,000 people were getting ARD from different ARD centers.

From last 1 or 1and 1/2 months they were not getting their ARD for full month.

They were getting it may be for 1 week or some time they were getting it for 15

days.

But from two to three days back they are not getting it. It has been stopped

completely. I do not know the real reason why NACO has been stopped it, when it

is a life saving drug.

Maximum of the PLHIVs are from poor background, in this situation where they

will go, when they do not have the sufficient money to purchase their drug and

as well as for their family also.

 

Nobody has right to play with the life of PLHIVs in Bihar. They should look into

the matter seriously and solve this problem as soon as possible. Because it is

the question of life and death.

 

With Regards,

Tarit Chakraborty.
