It’s heartbreaking to hear how the rising costs are impacting people’s access to essential medications. I’m curious, are there any efforts or organizations in Nigeria working to address these price hikes and ensure that vital medications like asthma inhalers remain affordable for those who need them?

This is simply horrible to hear! :pensive: What role could government policies, international aid, or community initiatives play in alleviating these pressures for individuals like Phoebe and others in similar situations?
