Soaring indignation. Roszdravnadzor carries out large-scale testing of drugs

The Territorial Departments of the Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Health sent to distributors and drugstore chains demands to provide samples of medicinal products, as well as documents confirming their quality. Some Territorial Departments attached a list containing 330 drug names. By all indications, it seems that this list was intended only for internal use by the Territorial Departments, and after getting to the outside world, has created quite a commotion. For example, some market participants suggested that the agency wanted to get all 330 named medicines from them. They were especially impressed with the demand to provide 876 packets of Levitra.

Question of hubs

City Hall has been looking for ways to eliminate the famous Moscow traffic jams on the city’s roads. One possible solution was announced back in 2011, a plan to build transport interchange hubs (TIH) in the capital city. However, its implementation would require huge investments, which the city government simply does not have, and which private investors will not touch, seeing great risks, according to some players, in these poorly designed projects. Even the prospects of building huge amounts of new real estate within such TIH are not able to attract major developers.
