Crime, Terrorism And The Drug Supply / Medical News Today, 30 Mar 2006

Crime, Terrorism And The Drug Supply:
Bryan A. Liang
"The traditional drug supply chain is often considered to be simple and safe: the manufacturer makes the drug, sends it to wholesalers, who distribute it to pharmacies. Yet vulnerabilities provide opportunities for criminals and terrorists to exploit it for their own reprehensible purposes. "

Drug supplies issues will be addressed at the Institute of Health Law Studies' annual health policy conference, “Terrorism, International Crime, and Medicine Security: Issues in a Global Marketplace,” June 9, 2006 in San Diego. For more information, go to www.CaliforniaWestern.edu/ihls
