Today Colombia 🇨🇴 made an expensive HIV/AIDS treatment affordable By overriding the patent monopoly (a 'compulsory license') Pharma sued & attacked health ministry staff, delaying progress Colombia stood tall. 👏👏 Let's follow the example. Here is the dolutegravir license:

Huuuuuge protest in Buenos Aires against Milei’s education cuts
The Lancet: UNFPA warns of threats to sexual & reproductive health UNAIDS Winnie Byanyima told The Lancet the report “demonstrates the harm caused by the well-funded, well-organised, & brutal anti-rights campaign to criminalise & punish people for who they are & who they love”.
...Like we called this bluff a long time ago...Moderna was NEVER serious- it was charged with racist inequity so it announced a 'plant', in Kenya! - it IS serious however about patent abuse and knowledge hoarding. Hope they lose in US courts. @peoplesvaccine @HealthJusticeIn

Many of us were sceptical of Moderna’s plans to invest in African manufacturing mid pandemic. Seemed more aimed at undermining the #PeoplesVaccine campaign than anything. And seems we were right 👇 Africa can never rely on Big Pharma. ft.com/content/dbcce8…
'Colombia considers that after 30 years of the #TRIPS Agreement implementation, a Member driven policy discussion, supported by METRICS AND DATA, should provide the basis for a review...' Brava, Colombia! You can find a note on KEI h/t @ThiruGeneva
How did we get to a point where IP rights, imperfect, historically contingent are now presented as immutable? Compromising will require parties to undertake to curb post grant exploitation of patents and to facilitate involuntary transfers of technology
shocker... @moderna_tx built US & Swiss factories in months. 4yrs later announce halt to plans to build in Kenya. Almost like they weren't serious? World needs technology transfer not monopolized outsourcing. Pandemic Treaty Negot. please be more serious africanews.com/2024/04/11/mod…
And this is why we need firm commitments by governments on technology transfer for pandemic preparedness in the @WHO pandemic accord. #INB9 #PandemicAccord

I’m in a town by an active volcano. At 4am, I woke up to what sounded like an air raid siren…. Turns out that’s just how they alert firefighters to a house fire. Phew.

The global health community must call for an immediate ceasefire and unrestricted humanitarian aid in #Gaza, say Fatima Hassan and colleagues @HealthJusticeIn bmj.com/content/385/bm…
MSF is horrified that Al-Shifa hospital is in ruins after a 14-day long operation by Israeli forces in and around the facility. Gaza’s largest hospital is now out of service. Given the extent of the destruction, people in the north are left with even fewer healthcare options.

Hard to compare as industry don’t publish their clinical trial costs - it’s a black box. But v high industry full R&D cost *estimates* dominate the narrative that high prices are needed - with zero requirement to back them up by publishing costs.

Just to remind everyone that it wasn't an easy battle and how every time a country starts exploring this public health safeguard aka compulsory license (CL), few powerful countries, being lobbied by Big Pharma, put pressure for not issuing it.
Today Colombia 🇨🇴 made an expensive HIV/AIDS treatment affordable By overriding the patent monopoly (a 'compulsory license') Pharma sued & attacked health ministry staff, delaying progress Colombia stood tall. 👏👏 Let's follow the example. Here is the dolutegravir license:

Bold move from 🇨🇴 on the path to health justice! Health Ministry *today* tackles pharma patent power head on. Commits to generic competition w/ViiV's dolutegravir. Expected "compulsory license" will strike at root of high AIDS drug prices. Put your hands together!👏👏👏 🧵

Feel really sad to be waking up to a world where this government has spent half a billion pounds bending round the law, the Supreme Court and the core principles of human rights to ship off asylum seekers to Rwanda in a performative last ditch attempt to win the next election.

The @GladeAreaGlasto returns for Glastonbury 2024 with a superb line-up of DJs and live acts playing eclectic grooves, electronic beats, reggae, dub and disco under the leafy canopies!
Amazing combination- Brazil's Finance Minister, bringing taxing the rich to the G20 agenda for the first time, with @SenSanders and @IlhanMN championing this in the USA- a tax @JoeBiden has also called for. The US needs to back the Brazil proposal to tax the rich at the G20.
Disse recentemente que o mundo precisa de esperança e vejo ela se materializar nessa semana em Washington. Bernie Sanders, senador norte americano, Espanha e França já endossam a necessidade da criação de um sistema tributário internacional e a taxação dos super-ricos.…
