        I also personally congratulate to both countries in taking such a tangible action to save lives by stopping tobacco. To my surprise, tobacco producing companies are on one hand massively producing it and on the other hand writing on it "Tobacco seriously damages health", Why?

        So does malaria. Studies show that African countries are importing drugs without active ingredients from India. Dr. Tedros should put a tireless effort to ensure ALL drug manufacturing companies in India to maintain the good manufacturing practice as described by WHO.

        Wish the same is done on alcohol packing, risk due to drunken driving should be highlighted.
