As our class has examined the relationship between Africa and the emerging BRIC economies I thought that I would bring attention to the creation of Pharmaceutical Factory in Uganda. This factory has begun producing all levels of Anti Retro Viral treatment drugs, and anti-malarial treatments both of which are in need in Sub-Saharan Africa. This factory was built through a partnership with two drug companies one Indian and the other Ugandan. Hopefully this factory will reduce the need for importing expensive drugs, and provide easier access to people who desperately need these life saving treatments.
