On other side, the Acting Director of Standards Preparation TBS, Hamisi Mwanasala said this year’s slogan directs us to reflect on the contribution of standards in developing the industrial economy especially in the pharmaceutical and medical equipment sector against the Covid-19 epidemic which has been a threat to the countries of Africa and the World as a whole as well as other possible outbreaks of disease.
