Some of the medicines, medical devices and equipment contained in the IEHK may not be appropriate for all cultures and countries or every kind of emergency. It is not designed for health conditions requiring continued care or to substitute for normal health products supply chain mechanisms. The kits are neither designed nor recommended for re-supplying existing equipment, supplies and drugs in health-care facilities.
