About a hundred localities in the Republic of Moldova do not have access to medicines. "Pharmacy in your village" reached only 47 villages in 2024

In many villages in the Republic of Moldova, access to medicines remains a major problem, due to the lack of pharmacies. Though the authorities launched the "Pharmacy in your village" project, within which they proposed to open 146 state-subsidized pharmacies this year, only 47 were created.
