According to him, when developing the strategy, experts of the ad hoc group took into account the fact that "it should be based on evidence and be realistic, given the available resources of our country."
"The recommendations of a WHO mission, as well as the IAEA were taken into account. Patient organizations were also involved in the development of the strategy. Rehabilitation and palliative care are separate objectives of the strategy. It is important to take care not only of treatment, but also of the quality of our patients' life," the minister said.
