The head of the Lebanese Pharmacists' Association, Joe Salom, visited the Antonine University in Baabda and met with the fathers of the Antonine Order. He emphasized "the necessity for everyone to engage in the battle to preserve Lebanon's identity, especially in light of all the changes it is facing, whether through the influx of smuggled medications and the spread of everything illegal in the health sector, or the Syrian displacement crisis which is destroying what remains of the health network as well as the features of the entity," according to a statement from his media office.
