Veterans Affairs committee  My last question is for Dr. Sellers as well. In terms of what you have learned internationally—one of you today talked about the Five Eyes: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, U.K. and the U.S.—are there any medical conferences or training specifically on this, discussing the topic o

Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you both for your testimony today. My first question is for Professor Quinn. Dr. Sellers talked about records of who was prescribed mefloquine.

Veterans Affairs committee  Professor Quinn, I'm just going to jump in to add to that. I'm going to take a turn on this one. I'm wondering, Dr. Sellers, if you could speak a little bit to that.

Veterans Affairs committee  In other drugs that have been prescribed, anti-malarial drugs, do we know of any reactions to them? Further, Mr. Downes, would there be a recommendation that the prescriptions that are filled on base be more closely tracked over time?

Karen LudwigLiberal

Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you, all, for your testimony here today. Brigadier-General Downes, you mentioned the contraindications of prescribing mefloquine. If a serving member, prior to being deployed, checked off some of those boxes, might that have restricted him or her from the mission?
