E-DRUG: Abbott Withdraws Seven Medicines in Thailand (2)
--------------------------------------------------------

dear E-druggers,

This is disgusting... The people of Thailand have a right to affordable treatment. If Compulsary license as a Flexibility will not be allowed to be used in public interest, then it is abundantly clear that the TRIPS Regime which is considered one of the MOST UNJUST INTERNATIONAL TRADE REGIMES ,is more unjust than what was thought.

A list of Abbot Drugs & their alternatives needs to be made & circulated worldwide.

Bullying of the poor should not be allowed to go on unchallenged. As public Health people our priority is public Health.
