A delayed shipment of Tacrolimus, the critical anti-rejection drug used by organ transplant patients, is expected to arrive on Wednesday, according to Health Minister Dr Lackram Bodoe.

Dr Bodoe told Guardian Media that the shipment of 1 mg and 0.5 mg doses was delayed by a day due to a mechanical problem with a cargo plane.
