KUWAIT: There is no "severe” shortage of the ministry’s medicine, Minister of Health (MoH) Dr Ahmad Al-Awadhi said Tuesday, affirming that there are alternatives to the unavailable ones. During a regular National Assembly session, Al-Awadhi added that the ministry is working on automating information system regarding the medical records.
