“Patients living with HIV in Havana reported receiving expired antiretroviral medications at state pharmacies as the health system faces supply shortages and difficulties monitoring patients’ conditions. Activist Evelyn Pineda, who lives with HIV along with her 10-year-old son, told Radio Martà that medications are often unavailable and that when they do arrive, ‘you go to pick them up and they are expired.’ … Workers at the state pharmacy located on Aranguren Street in Guanabacoa said the drugs are part of international donations intended for antiretroviral treatment. Staff said they can be consumed ‘as long as they remain sealed and the medication does not change color.'” (03/10/26)
