Chronicle Reporter
THOUSANDS of people living with HIV risk succumbing to infections due to a shortage of cotrimoxazole, an antibiotic used to fight common infections caused by a compromised immune system, in public hospitals.
In separate interviews recently, the affected people said each time they visited public health institutions, they were told that the drug was in short supply and were advised to buy it from private pharmacies.
“There is a serious shortage of cotrimoxazole in the country and that affects our health.
