Top Tweets for #IPWaiver
Joined the #RightToBreathe event at @ECFSConference today. Heartbreaking stories of parents & clinicians fighting for lives of their kids & patients. Talked about #compulsorylicensing to access #Vertex CF modulators. We’ve requested a CL or #IPwaiver to access CF treatment in 🇺🇦
My article on the reforms by #EuropeanCommission aimed at restricting #pharma monopolies, incl the new pan-European #compulsorylicensing regime for #emergencies. Good example for #Ukraine to implement effective mechanisms such as an #IPwaiver to provide A2M during the #war.
Politico discuses our initiative on #IPwaiver in #Ukraine during the #war to boost access to essential meds. I explain it is a lawful option based on #securityexceptions in art73 TRIPS. We are grateful for pharma donations but it’s not sustainable in case of a protracted conflict
Ukrainian lawmakers consider IP ‘nuclear option’ to secure medicines supply https://t.co/3RwxZ1O8Zv @hcollis @OlgaGurgula @WTO @WHO
By unlawfully invading #Ukraine #russia violated #internationallaw. This includes its IP measures:
(i) changes to compulsory licensing &
(ii) a blank #IPwaiver.
This violates #TRIPS & russia cannot benefit from #securityexceptions under #Article73.

Participated in a meeting of the Ukrainian Parliamentary Committee on Health. I explained the essence of the draft law on #IPwaiver that we submitted to the Parliament with our colleagues. The main message - the IP waiver will reduce budget expenditures & save millions of lives!
As part of a global #cysticfibrosis campaign by @VertexSaveUs and @JustTreatment, Ukrainian CF patients submitted a petition to the Ministry of Health of #Ukraine demanding to issue a #compulsorylicence or an #IPwaiver on the CF drug #Trikafta owned by #Vertex.
An #IPwaiver extension will jeopardise R&D and future pandemic preparedness.

Russia’s changes to its #compulsorylicensing with no compensation to the rightsholders from ‘unfriendly states’ & a blank #IPwaiver violate #TRIPS & cannot be justified based on #securityexceptions in Art. 73 TRIPS because it must be invoked in good faith. Link to the paper below
The COVID Vaccine #IPwaiver was already a mistake and we at @ConsumerChoiceC warned that this will open the gateways to more anti-innovation policies. Now several countries demand to extend the #TRIPSwaiver to Covid therapeutics and diagnostics.
We've been quiet for a while but are back 👋 with a sobering #multilateralmatters post by Dr Bonginkosi Shozi on how unequal power relations & the agenda of high income countries led to a disappointing @wto #ipwaiver decision https://t.co/MgZNHoxI2b #COVID19 @UctLaw @WendWendland
Happy to see this published https://t.co/QKYks7LYca #IPwaiver #accesstomedicines #Ukraine #UkraineRussiaWar
Russia has adopted changes to its #compulsorylicensing regime setting 0% compensation to companies from ‘unfriendly states’ & #IPwaiver for all products. This violates its #TRIPS obligations. See my comments in #FT explaining why Russia can’t use security defence in Art 73 TRIPS.
Covid vaccine #ipwaiver cannot be precedent for future public health crises. Capital markets are in turmoil and patents on biotech weakened. Where is incentive to invest? I am very worried about the future of swift innovation. #noipwaiver
#IPwaiver was supposedly about access equity - but in truth about local manufacturing by national champions. We went from zero vax to billions of unused doses in just 17 months, incl. across LMICS. Access is jabs in arms, not paper deals in Geneva.

An #IPwaiver would not add a single additional vaccine dose. Tech transfer goes far beyond the patent, is built on trust, know-how sharing and voluntary licensing. Read more on how we can increase access to #COVID19 vaccines: https://t.co/Yt7kasUurS
