There is no shortage of insulin at the North Central Regional Health Authority (NCRHA), its Chief Executive Officer, Davlin Thomas, has said, as he sought to put an end to what he described as a “destructive rumour.”

“Patients in need of medication are advised to disregard the rumour being spread online and to proceed to dispensary at the EWMSC Mt. Hope to have your prescriptions filled,” the NCRHA stated on its Facebook page.
