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.

Negotiating with a patent holder in good faith may take several weeks, which could be time that the #government does not have. Additionally, the government may not be aware of all the #patents it needs to purchase.
