Unionists: Small Pharmacies in Bulgaria Threatened by Bankruptcy

Business | September 23, 2007, Sunday

The small pharmacies in Bulgaria will go bankrupt if the Health Ministry adopts the new regulation for the medicine prices, the Bulgarian Pharmaceutical Union warned on Sunday.

The unionists labelled the new regulation "pseudo-social". If adopted, the new regulation will limit the access to medicines and pharmaceutical services, they believe.

Additionally, the new regulation will destroy a profession, which will lead to a shortage of qualified pharmaceutical personnel.

Unionists: Small Pharmacies in Bulgaria Threatened by Bankruptcy
What a nonsense, there's a pharmacy in every other block in Sofia, with staff doing nothing for most of the day. If these people would fill vacancies in other professions, they would be a great stimulus to the economy.

Pharmacies should care more about clients to avoid bankrupcy
I noticed too, that there is a pharmacy every 100-200m, maybe not in the outskirts, but certainly in the center. And all they have is skincare products,
various tootpastes an brushes, hankys and so on, if you ask for a specific drug or have a specific question, they can not help. I had the problem of running to 4-5 pharmacies, which all didnt have the drug I asked for, they didnt even know it, they simply don't care.

What is the most important conclusion from the Sofia Mayor elections on November 15, 2009?
That the ruling party GERB of PM Borisov continues to be hugely popular, whereas the Socialists are pretty much out.

That the decline of the Socialist Party has stopped whereas the ruling party GERB has failed to attract the expected very high number of voters.

That the Sofia residents are either completely disillusioned with politics, or care little about who is Mayor.

That the record-high jackpot of the Bulgarian State Lottery "Toto" generated much greater interest than the Mayor elections.
