The shortage of medicines in Venezuela is serious, and the few laboratories that have survived in the country are at risk.
Venezuelan Minister of Health threatened today the owners of pharmaceutical laboratories to expropriate their factories but "stop diverting the medicines" that according to the Minister these take other directions and reach the hands of the resellers.
This tense situation between the Pharmaceutical Laboratories still exist in Venezuela and the Government of Nicolas Maduro puts in check the citizenship that depends on the few medicines that these laboratories are manufacturing, the high cost of food and medicines in the country has claimed the life of more than one Venezuelan, motivated that the National Government does not invest in both fields according to the "economic blockade" on the part of the international community and the war implemented by the Venezuelan opposition together with the United States.
This medicine shortage that became in September 2017 up to 90%, by 2018 did not reflect any change, but on the contrary, in terms of these threats and if the story materialized, it would take an apocalyptic course that would lead to an indescribable number of deaths in the Venezuelan State due to the absolute lack of medicines.
It must be taken into account that 100% of the companies expropriated by the Venezuelan revolution are all unproductive and bankrupt.
