What is behind Germany’s green slogan?

8 May 2023


This Monday, May 8th, the #Fem4PeoplesVaccine attended the #CEDAW85 kick-off. We want to highlight the intersectional effects intellectual property over essential medical products in the context of the #COVID19 pandemic have on the lives of us all, particularly based in the global South.

We hope to make Germany accountable for its determining role in the #COVID vaccine apartheid and how it affected women in the global South. Today, we are asking Germany to learn from its mistakes and waive intellectual property off of #COVID tests & treatments.

If we can speak about recovery for some, we must acknowledge that #COVID has been a thriving time for others, particularly #BigPharma.

#Pfizer's vaccine is one of the most lucrative products in history, amassing nearly $37 bn

This is what #COVID caused in low-income countries:

🔸Decrease in investments in social programs 📉

"When we talk about accountability to partnerships, there have to be parameters, inexcusable promotion and protection of #HumanRights & scrutiny of how partnerships work, & how benefits are shared.

"The absurd & unconscionable profits raked in by #BigPharma during #COVID are paid in human lives, particularly in the global South".
