Due to instructions in Russian, the sale, storage and use of the Pentaxim vaccine, which is used to prevent diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, and polio, was banned in Ukraine.
The corresponding order was published by the website of the State Service of Ukraine for Medicines and Drug Control, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The document recommends that business entities involved in the sale, storage and use of medicines, after receiving an order, check the Pentaxim medicine for “labeling in a foreign language (Russian)” and take measures “to remove them from circulation for further disposal and/or destruction."
As PolitNavigator previously reported, Doctor of Economic Sciences of Ukraine Anatoly Peshko is the main reason that Ukraine leads Europe in terms of infant mortality rates, called the “reforms” of the American Ulyana Suprun.
