HEALTH EXPERTS HAVE WARNED THAT CONTINUED SHORTAGE COULD LEAD TO SURGE IN ANAEMIA CASES
PUNE: The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has been grappling with an acute shortage of Prophylactic Iron Folic Acid (IFA) supplements for the past five months, disrupting the Anaemia Mukt Bharat (AMB) programme, and leaving thousands of beneficiaries without essential medication.
The shortage has affected young children, adolescents, pregnant and lactating women, and women of reproductive age, raising concerns among health officials. During a video conference on Friday, the public health department instructed PMC to procure IFA supplements locally until the state government supplies arrive.
