The Delhi High Court on Monday asked the Centre and Delhi government to come out with a policy on distribution of Amphotericin-B, used for treating black fungus patients, due to their current scarcity. A Bench of Justice Vipin Sanghi and Justice Jasmeet Singh remarked that the “cruel decision” of excluding certain age group or class of people till the drug is in shortage could not be left with the doctors and has to be taken by the political leadership in consultation with experts. The court asked if there are two patients, one is 80-year-old and other is 35-year-old, and there is only one dose of medicine then it should be given to whom.More Related News
