🔺️🔻Behind the scenes of the sale of 12 million octogenarian flu vaccine / Is there approval for this vaccine?
Abdullah Yassal, Director General of Medicines and Substances under the supervision of the Food and Drug Organization:
Some of the vaccines that reach people at a price of 10 to 12 million tomans are smuggled products, while the compatibility of their strains with the country's conditions is unknown, and it is also impossible to be sure of observing the cooling chain in the smuggling process, and in a situation where even the official import of pharmaceutical raw materials is hardly done under what conditions are smuggled vaccines, it is not clear under what conditions the vaccines are smuggled.
Hadi Ahmadi, spokesman for the Iranian Pharmacists Association:
🔹️ This vaccine is available in one of the countries neighboring Iran at a price of 18 dollars, and I don't know how they calculated this price, and unfortunately, there are also people who buy it.
🔹️ (Distribution of the first shipment of imported flu vaccine by the Food and Drug Organization): This vaccine was imported from China and is available to their countrymen at a price of two million and 185 thousand tomans.
