(Advcrnsrmcnl) Soviet cope with shortages MOSCOW iAPI For all of Mikhail S.

Gorbachev's reforms, the Soviet health system, with its ossified bureaucracy, confused new directives, backward industry and lack of funds, remains unable to fill an array of health needs. This was evident recently at a gathering of 10 core members of the newly formed Moscow Diabetes Association One member. Larisa Krupinyova. said a specialist had recommended that her diabetic son. Roman, be given a high-quality insulin "I said.

Tine, where do I get she told the group. "She told me. your Around the small circle, heads nodded in empathy. Elvira Gustova, mother of a 15- year-old diabetic, said that in five years she has been able to buy only 50 strips used for the blood-sugar tests that are supposed to be taken daily. Pravda, the Communist Party newspaper, reported recently that President Gorbachev had told a meeting of the party's ruling Politburo the medicine shortage was so severe it had become a political problem that should be taken under "tough party control He had previously denounced what he called the mismanagement that fuels shortages of pharmaceuticals and equipment.

He also singled out by name the officials he said ordered millions of disposable syringes without ensuring there would be needles to go with them. Babies and children in several Soviet hospitals have contracted AIDS from unsteril- ized needles The government recently pledged an additional $781 million to buy imported medications. In all, the Soviet Union expects to spend about $32 billion from its precious hard- currency reserves to import medicines this year, but Pravda said the situation stitl is not improving. Speakers at the Politburo meeting blamed the Soviet pharamaceutical industry for the shortage, as well as the refusal of several localities to allow new chemical factories to be built within them. Alexei Moskvichev, head of Moscow's health services, estimated that only 400 of the 2,800 permissable medications are in short supply in the Soviet Union and said he knew of no deaths brought on by the lack of a particular medication.

"If I knew it was needed, it would be obtained somehow, whether by plane from Europe or otherwise." he said in an interview. A recent article headlined "Why are children dying?" in the newspa- per Sovietskaya Kultura described how the lack of proper medicine in Soviet drugstores led to a rise in infant mortality. The government newspaper Izev- stia advised in a headline, "You're sick? Breathe deeper!" The labor newspaper Trud titled a story "The shortage that costs lives." "We can get along without meat and sausage," retiree S. Katayev wrote in a letter to Pravda "And we can even live with just 1.5 kilograms (3 pounds i of sugar a month we won't die from that. But we can't get along without medical help." The longest line at the biggest pharmacy ir the Soviet Union leads to the information booth where people try to find out where they can get the medicine they need if they can get it at alt.

On a recent afternoon in Pharma- cy No. 1, Anfisa Kremlyova, a retired doctor, came away from the information window empty-handed. She had been told no drugstore in the district had the anti-coagulant or sedative she needed. "I'll just have to search some more," she said. "Sometimes there are scenes," said Tamara Pogromova, assistant director of the pharmacy a short walk from Red Square "After all, people have to get cured." This past spring, recalled Rima Goffman.

whose grandson has diabetes, there was an insulin panic, and calls started pouring in saying supplies of top-grade imported insulin were getting dangerously low. Members of the Moscow Diabetes Association appealed to Moscow's Communist Party committee. The party chiefs pressured the Health Ministry, and within two weeks supplies improved.
