E-drug: G8 & global health crises: press release
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Copied from Ip-Health. KM]

Thirteen Canadian or international NGOs have issued a joint press release
this morning calling on Canada and other G8 countries to dramatically
increase their financial and political commitment to fighting the global
HIV/AIDS pandemic and other diseases, and condemning the hypocrisy of
countries claiming to support Africa's development while their negotiators
at the WTO block proposals to increase access to quality, affordable generic
medicines.

The release and accompanying materials can be found on-line (in English &
French) at:
