Support Covid-19 patent waiver so more countries can produce COVID-19 vaccines
WTO on patents on COVID-19 tools, a small number of countries continue to block a waiver that would open up access to these tools during the pandemic.
Médecins Sans Frontières urges these countries (including UK) to immediately stop blocking the proposal to allow lives to be saved.
The UK will be seen as an uncaring and irresponsible country if they do not support this proposal.
“Countries must stop obstructing and show the leadership required to deliver on the ‘global solidarity’ they have so often declared during this pandemic. It’s time to champion access to medical tools for everyone, wherever they live.”
