MUNICH, Germany (Reuters) -Harry Kane scored a hat-trick in Bayern Munich's 8-1 demolition of Mainz 05 on Saturday to set a Bundesliga record as the champions cut the gap on leaders Bayer Leverkusen to seven points.

PETALING JAYA: Stronger enforcement is needed to curb the online sale of illicit medicines, say concerned parties.

“The laws are available, but irresponsible vendors take advantage of the loopholes, so many people sell the medicine online. They may mask the actual uses of the medicines, and this may ‘cover up’ their online venture,” she said. “In the case of antimicrobials sold online, they may lead to the bigger issue of antimicrobial resistance,” she said.“There is a possibility that some drugs are sold online, especially in the black market. This may encourage young people to buy online,” she added.
