A draft version of the WHO accord, which is being negotiated by the UN health agency’s 194 member countries, calls for it to be compulsory for companies to reveal the terms of any public procurement contracts.
A spokesperson for the WHO said it was member states that were driving the current process toward a new agreement. The document is vague about what would happen if countries that sign up do not stick to its rules and if companies do not comply.The proposal may face resistance from the drug industry after its meteoric race to develop vaccines and treatments that proved to be critical tools in controlling the virus which has killed more than 6.5 million people worldwide.
“If the draft were implemented as written today it would most likely undermine rather than facilitate our collective ability to rapidly develop and scale up counter measures and ensure its equitable access,” Cueni added.
Is this to properly legalize their unethical conduct ?
