July 2020 - Newsletter #2

The Important Update We Hope You Didn't Miss

We release this newsletter for the benefit of those who may have missed our previous one that was sent just before the 4th of July holiday.

An intelligence report circulated recently to law enforcement agencies throughout the USA is warning that further drug shortages are 'likely'. We discussed it in detail in our previous newsletter.

This dovetails with the advice we have repeatedly provided in our newsletters that drug shortages are at the highest levels we've ever seen all over the globe, which is also confirmed by the surveys of pharmacists in Canada and the United Kingdom that we have also previously informed customers about.

While prescription drug shortages are skyrocketing, so are the shipping rates we've been paying and they went up once again on July 1, 2020, due to an increase to postal rates imposed by the United States on the last mile delivery - or so-called “terminal dues” - for parcels arriving from abroad. That increase is on top of the Covid-19 surcharges that carriers and cargo companies are charging us.

Despite all that, NorthWestPharmacy.com has absorbed the rate increases and has also reduced its shipping fee for customers down to the pre-pandemic level. We will do our best to maintain the lower shipping fee and product-specific free shipping specials we are offering as another way to help mitigate the impact of the coronavirus crisis on our customers but we do not know what further Covid-19 surcharges or other rate increases we will face in the coming weeks so we may only be able to maintain the lower shipping fee of today for a limited time.

But the good news is that NorthWestPharmacy.com has been successfully taking, processing and delivering affordable prescription drugs throughout the entire coronavirus crisis and continues to. So, we do not wish to appear alarmist in highlighting concerns about the supply of prescription drugs in the coming months but we do directly experience the frustration of those who cannot get their vital prescription drugs when there are so many disruptions in the drug supply chain due to the coronavirus crisis. We do not want our customers to be in a position where procurement of inventory and delivery logistics could be more negatively impacted than they already are today and we believe it is our duty to diligently inform customers.

Please take advantage of the potentially time-limited reduced shipping fee and don't wait for more product lines to go out of stock or delivery systems to experience further delays as the coronavirus is spreading again. We encourage customers who may need medications in the coming months to place their orders now and those whose pending orders await shipping to keep their orders active and in the queue, which ensures they are locked in at the original price quoted at the time of placing the order. That's beneficial to you because we've absorbed much of the coronavirus-related increases in product acquisition and shipping costs that we've faced to date but may be unable to do so for much longer. Also, the limited pharmaceutical supply, available cargo space for transport and customs clearances will all be allocated to customers on a first-come-first-served basis and we anticipate that it may be quite some time before worldwide drug supply and delivery systems return to normal.
