NO MORE TEARS "Johnson & Johnson, a brand built o NO MORE TEARS "Johnson & Johnson, a brand built on images of happy gurgling babies and the tagline #nomoretears, has the ability to prevent 395 families from mourning the death of their child, each and every day. Yet it doesn’t. Last year, a total of 1.2 million people died from TB despite it being curable. J&J is the patent holder of bedaquiline, a drug that has saved millions of lives, but J&J's spurious pricing policy means it has also denied life to millions of others. J&J is a key-player in trials for COVID-19 vaccines. Can we trust the company any more with our lives with #COVID19 than we’ve been able to with #TB?" Sergey Kondratyuk, ITPC's #MakeMedicinesAffordable campaign manager. There's a link to the full blog, via our profile, plus read why there’s a coordinated effort to prevent J&J’s unmerited monopolies and make bedaquiline affordable. #TreatPeopleRight #treatmentactivist #activiststories #endTB #peoplebeforeprofit #bedaquiline

It’s not a big deal for me, for us." They’ve been together for two years. Do you have children? “Not yet,” Mariam smiles. The only ‘little-one’ they’re focused on for now is Mr. Archibald, their kitten. #harmreduction #HCV #supportdontpunish #access2meds #TreatPeopleRight #love #catsofinstagram #gingercat #activiststories #NGOphotography #Tbilisi #Georgia 📷: @gemmataylorphoto
ANDREI “My wife and I found out we were living ANDREI “My wife and I found out we were living with HIV when we were expecting our first child. The doctors refused to deliver the child unless we paid them, I had to go and find the cash while she was in labour.  Years later, after trying unsuccessfully for a second child, we discovered that we had also paid for the doctor to sterilise my wife without permission. As a husband, a wife, parents and as human beings we were so angry and upset, but as religious people we started praying.”  Andrei is a priest in western Ukraine. He is changing the attitude of his congregation, the community, and his church. Pictured with his bible and ARVs: “I’m never without either.” 📷: @gemmataylorphoto #Ukraine #nostigma #HIV #activism #activiststories #TreatPeopleRight #portraiture #NGOphotography #faith #mybelief #love #acceptance #access2meds #positive #parenting #positiveparenting
GOD, SEX, DRUGS Not just fighting taboos, stigma GOD, SEX, DRUGS Not just fighting taboos, stigma and access to medicines in Ukraine, but also fighting corruption. “We have been fighting corruption for 15 years. We constantly get legally challenged - and we always win. We have nothing to hide, but when you fight corruption, the big players don’t like it, and they try to turn the tables and attention onto us. Because when we’re winning in the fight for justice, we’re taking money away from them.” Dima, head of 100% LIFE, #Ukraine. @fight100life_ #GodSexDrugs #FightForLife #FightForRights #corruption #anticorruption #Kiev #access2meds #AccessToMedicines #humanrights

FOUR potential COVID-19 vaccines have been announced, so far, this month.

On the face of it, it’s the brilliant news that everyone has been hoping for. But despite the reaction of the media and the stock markets, none of these results are conclusive as of yet.

We welcome scientific advancements, but these MUST be scientifically peer-reviewed, we cannot have science-by-press-release.
