The Right to Health and Equitable Access to Covid-19 Health Technologies 1:22:19

Moderator: Prof. Leslie London | UCT & PHM SA Panelists: Candice Sehoma - Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF); Prof Rodrigo Uprimny – National Univ of Columbia. Member of the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights; Prof. Yousuf Abdoola Vawda - Univ of KZN During the pandemic, we have sharply highlighted the inequitable access to care and prevention for COVID-19, and the terrible impact that has had on the health of the most vulnerable in South Africa. The inequity in the response to COVID-19 reflects the highly unequal and divided South Africa care system even prior to this. Moreover, our legislative framework for access to medicines and health care technologies has long been problematic, denying people access to their rights to health care. In the joint Civil Society submission on South Africa’s report to the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (CESCR) in 2018, obstacles posed by patents were highlighted. The submission noted that “A patent law reform process began in 2009, but nearly a decade later, no new legislation has been enacted. Patent legislation that protects public health could help facilitate generic competition, cut prices and increase access to essential medicines.” Fast forward three years, still no progress. Access to medicine and health technologies has been clearly demonstrated under COVID-19 as a critical issue, with patents obstructing access to diagnostics for COVID-19. Obstacles posed by Intellectual Property barriers loom large as one of the key contributory reasons behind vaccine inequity. The webinar seeks to answer some of these questions: Why is there need for need for domestic patent law reform to achieve right to health Is flexibilities and compulsory licensing is accessible in Africa What does the right to health and the right to benefit from Scientific Progress mean in practice when we face barriers in access to health technologies? What lessons can we draw from International Guidance on this matter? UN Treaty Body Database · Facebook · Twitter · Donate · Website…

SASRO Webinar - Vaccines, Covid-19, and Access to Healthcare 2:20:08

2:20:08

Since the pandemic was declared by the WHO, there has been a rush to try to find ways to stop the virus. The production of a vaccine that would help both to get immunity, as well as manage the symptoms of the disease. But the race for vaccine is a complicated one. We live in a world dominated by Big Pharma, and there is a competing interest of the health of the global population, and profit. Vaccines are patented, strict and limited production is imposed, and highest bidder comes first. Vaccine apartheid or nationalism was a term coined due to the inequality in distribution to developing countries, and unequal access as countries prioritise certain groups, nationalities, ethnicities over others. This episode looks at issues of Vaccines and international property rights, the TRIPS waiver, and the vaccine roll out in Southern Africa.

Is Equitable access possible if the private sector is allowed to procure vaccines? 1:22:20

4 years назад1:22:20

1:22:20

This seminar was a platform to share the actions of Civil Society in response to an attempt by Solidarity and Afriforum to promote private procurement and distribution of vaccines for COVID-19 in SA. Solidarity and Afriforum lodged court papers to compel government to allow the private sector, NGOs and provinces to procure and distribute vaccines independent of government. The Health Justice initiative applied to be an Amicus Curiae (friend of the court) and would have brought evidence as to why such as case, were it to be successful, would have disastrous effects for an equitable and effective roll out of vaccines. The case was withdrawn before it was heard. However, because we believe the issues are of critical importance, PHM and HJI decided to co-host this webinar to bring these issues to the attention of the wider public. The speakers included: Fatima Hassan - Director of the HJI Dr. Tlaleng Mofokeng - UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Health Prof. Leslie London - Professor of Public Health Medicine at UCT and Steering Committee member for the PHM-SA Facebook · Twitter · Donate · Website…
