Researcher: Lidia Mayner
When natural disasters occur people with chronic diseases who depend on a constant supply of medication become highly vulnerable. In many cases medication is essential on a daily basis and lack of medication may result in death. Continued supply of medication may be a problem when a disaster occurs and, depending on the type of emergency, medication supply can be disrupted for a considerable amount of time. The aim of this project is to compile a chronic disease medication requirement list and compare medication demand in normal and extreme conditions.
