ANVISA is participating in the 13th plenary meeting of the Member States Mechanism on Substandard and Falsified Medical Products (MSMSF) of the World Health Organization (WHO), reinforcing its essential role in product regulation at the international level. The event will take place between November 19 and 22, at the WHO headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland.
