OxBlog, one of the most popular blogs in the world, reported on the CRE White Paper on drug diversion within hours of its presentation on the web. Its vast audience allowed the readers around the world to be become acquainted with this issue.

OxBlog states:

"The Center for Regulatory Effectiveness, a group of former OMB officials, has a white paper out on the fradulent diversion of pharmaceutical drugs from their intended recipients - a problem they find to be large, growing, and troubling."

Publication on OxBlog, authored by students from Oxford, has had several impacts. First it has put the White Paper into play; we encourage our readers to read it and offer their suggestions. The paper is presented as a separate forum on this site and can be accessed at:

Second, it shows that the more timely the information, the more likely that information on one site will be picked up by another. Accordingly, "Regulatory Event of the Day" will contain a number of items each day.
