Is this health equity? 70% of deaths for cancer hare occurring in LMICs vs 5% of the resources spent on cancer are spent in LMICs @m_mutebi @GlopesMd @damilnermd @ATOM_Coalition #ASCO2023 #meds4all

Aiutatemi a capire. Le donne che hanno avuto figli, possono andare in pensione prima di quelle che non li hanno avuti. Ma a 58 anni, i figli sono grandi. non avrebbe senso fornire aiuti alle madri quando i bimbi sono piccoli e non discriminare le donne davanti alla pensione?
Biotherapeutics represent an enormous clinical opportunity, especially for NCDs. Low access to these medicines in LMICs is simply unacceptable. We tried to understand how we can fill this gap, here some of our considerations. @MedsPatentPool @Seb_Morin_GVA @eburrone
📃#Publication｜@LancetGH has just published a paper by MPP co-authors on expanding access to #biotherapeutics in #LMICs through #PublicHealth non exclusive voluntary #IntellectualProperty licensing.

🎙@GiuliaESSE, our #NCDs Access Manager, shares her thoughts on what is voluntary licensing and why does it matter to access #cancer #medicines.
#WCC2022
drugs need to become #available, this is the first step to drive the development of #healthsystems. We are at a turning point and this community can make the difference! Thanks to our panel @ymartei @MaryNyangasi @PatGarciaGonzal @pahowho @eburrone @MedsPatentPool
#WCC2022｜Final words from MPP's @eburrone > we're at a turning point. We keep on hearing that #cancer is complex. Let's try new ways of providing #access2meds that have worked in other disease areas 👉🏽voluntary licensing is one of them.
#worldcancercongress is about to kick off. Join our panel on #access to #essentialmedicines for #cancer on Tuesday 18th at 3,30pm. You’ll hear some best practices on how we can make #access in LMICs more possible! @MedsPatentPool @ymartei @eburrone @PatGarciaGonzal @MaryNyangasi

#WCC2022
Happy birthday #medspal! Thanks for teaching us so much about medicines’ patents and how they can represent a barrier to #access! @MedsPatentPool
Wow! Already 6 years! It all started with an oversized excel sheet and developed into a huge database covering 140 essential meds. I particularly wish to thank @PascaleBoulet who conceptualized and managed it at the start, and Amina Maillard who has led it for the past 4 years.
And guess how is the #access to antivenoms in lower-middle income countries? No #availability and No #affordability @MSF_access
