E-DRUG: Film on management of Aceh tsunami donations 
---------------------------------------------------

As a follow-up to the notice about the street sale of drugs in Burkino Faso, I would like to bring attention to another film from PSF-CI; le second Tsunami which documents the 600 tons of unusable medication sent to Banda Aceh following the Tsunami. The name is a reference
to the feeling of health-care professionals who had to deal with a second
Tsunami of worthless material they were then in need of destroying which as
I understand it is still ongoing. It is a sobering commentary with
references to previous outpourings of well intentioned garbage following
seemingly every natural disaster and war. It is so significant we have
elected to screen it during our next conference ( Maine Benzodiazepine Study
Group www.mainebenzo.org) as the first film we have ever shown at a
conference.

I strongly recommend the film.
