Thessaloniki, Greece. 26th March 's pharmacies are set to close indefinitely later this week in protest at a recent deal between the government and bailout lenders to deregulate store licenses. Pharmacies will open ’til 14:30, then start rolling strikes. Pharmacists argue that current licensing rules ensure that residents in remote parts of the country, including villages and islands, have ample access to medicines while city-dwellers are also well served by a rotation system that keeps drug dispensers open overnight in every neighborhood.
