Today many organizations are working to reach Africa quality drugs and low cost as generic drugs.
For me the struggle is first in the implied right to essential medicines in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that every human being has access to health but can not be achieved without them. It would start
cart before the horse if fighting drugs of good quality is not the first we ensure that everyone, children and adults have access to medicines to combat diseases that plague: malaria, tuberculosis, diarrhea, parasites, meningitis, pneumonia etc.
Thirty percent of the world's population can not exercise this right. And this proportion is growing in parts of Africa to 55%. Centers and Hospitals in rural and urban health are not in possession of fifty essential medicines promulgate the World Health Organization as completely indispensable.
If so I think our commitment to the European Union is to make this a reality requiring multinational patents and release their rights and lower their prices so that everyone can not begin to enjoy a sophisticated medicine and highly specialized ...! gone are the poor have it! But if they can receive the normal treatment and essential when you are sick.
What would we do without paracetamol, aspirin or antibiotics?
