to my area of work. i feel that i can do it. well and i feel room realisations. to be able to preclude for me. the scene. works like this that the people who. want to have the opportunity to do the suv the name of their life more. so r.t. portugal's island takes you region. and coming out see reports on the legal battles being fought in india for access to cheap oil lifesaving medicine to stay with us for. recently the ministry of internal affairs of russia declared that they're going to
8:30 am
drastically increase operations in and around the moscow subway system with a major emphasis on illegal immigration there's an odd paradox when people talk about dealing with illegal immigration in terms of what the police should do people want the police to deal with it but any means of trying to actually do anything are generally taboo any form of asking people to see ideas viewed as an invasion of privacy or racial profiling well i don't know how exactly anyone can prove they are or aren't a citizen without id and if you're looking for people who are forward and thus different then how can you go about looking for illegals without looking for people who are different i.e. profiling if you were looking for a criminal of slavic origin in uganda when the police be wrong to stop me due to standing out from the crowd i don't think so that's not racial profiling it is just common sense obviously it is best to fight the causes of illegal immigration rather than asking for id in moscow subways but they have to do something so i guess id checks are here to stay but there's a big difference between looking at someone's passport and doing stop and frisk or involuntary blood and urine tests that is what immigration control goes over the
8:31 am
line but that's just my opinion. the economic down in the final. days. sank night in the red because i think he may be a prickly. i i.
8:32 am
would if i have. the clothes to me will the t.t.t. dance even if. it's not one has to continue indefinitely. if you not get them done so that we may not be and. i thank you thank. the majority of india's population does not even have access to primary health care it's. many cancer patients gain access to the treatment through an ngo. the cancer patients hate association. case we see the supporting sit in front of the sheets or keep it in one key piece. because given. the generic.
8:33 am
it just says you know if we have cheese the people and provided. it to be in that range of maybe even. to this statement which movie support. the efficacy of the distance is identical so i do think that. it's justified in giving that. tends. to be considered.
8:34 am
that. the self-sufficiency philosophy on which the indian state relied since its independence changed in one thousand nine hundred five. in that year at the world trade organization was a stablished which determines how color should be conducted worldwide. and india became a member from the very beginning. if you. do not sign this agreement with your create with you. you know that the world has become more like
8:35 am
a global village late you cannot go ahead and ostracize a country and say or you do whatever you want on this on we are not created with you that country will not be able to survive on its own. as member of the w t o recognized in two thousand and five for the first time in its history peyton pharmaceutical products. based on that fact novartis demanded to be granted a pavement for as it claims a renewed form of glivec. however india's paid into office rejected his obligation. does not merit a peyton certificate in india. going to bid. as big as the it is. pretty basic public bodies behind the bit and blow used not
8:36 am
to get bitten on things that which is already known so good is already known. solved is already to. get a bit redundant. going to get a bit until it. is already known in name to name to get a bit of it is that. the. chemical which i imagine this highly was a base product but in that form it was not medicine it was just a chemical but when the waters and its researchers do their work and created to be decreased by inform it became make it became. a great medicine which made. initially a disease which was sure death sentence into a chronic illness and. when they did the drug in the unit it was eleven and united states children twenty a monopoly. it was
8:37 am
a new compound but india i was not part of the system we cannot go back. and give you a fact and a ninety two more. they basically said we can't get the basics so we come up with every greening application which we can put into developing countries like india and not be. evergreen is a pleasant term for a poor practice. it is the refreshment of a drug in other words you present an old drug as a new one. pharmaceutical companies use it in order to falsely pull on a drugs paid into oil to use. if you ask me in one night what it means you take the same and patented again and again and again in different forms so the drugs are the same but the form changes so you don't come up with a new drug you just take that and be formulated. on.
8:38 am
take. and make it into a shooting. and that can be a different patent or together so you once you've done that you get a new market you get an extension of your monopoly and indeed you have not solved integration because you haven't come up with something new. like a pharmaceutical zoran engineering or you know it there might be one of the cases where this is done but that does not mean it is done all the time i think it's presented it seems to be more the norm than the exception and i can certainly see and believe it is deaf we know the kids because it's a dramatic improvement on the outcome. knowing the evergreen in practice and the abuse of the paging system india maintain strict safeguard measures and it's legal
8:39 am
says. but what can be painted and what cannot. in line with the international law it was the first country to do something that others can also do. it is why those safeguard measures were at the heart of the historic legal battle between the indian state and of artists the world's largest pharmaceutical company . shall not be granted on the mirror of avian. shuls so mean if it is significant because india is the fourth. which has put border. in the manner in which you would prevent abuses of the patents. you seem documentary evidence and that unfortunately these from the companies have been backed by the very powerful country governments for example that got been commissioned that they expected some excluding them coming from. here in the favor of its own from sort of the industry rather than looking at. the
8:40 am
pharmacy of the developing world all the other big manufacturing companies they do have the best in europe. they're trying to go ahead and negotiate on intellectual property rights as well because the voice. in india that might be placed into big big profit margins and know. which is which has been going ahead and hindering profits of big pharmaceutical companies because when they try to word and sell their products in africa for example obviously a generic pharmaceutical will be able to give a much greater price compared to what they're offering and then we both are equally good. emirs become the cheap key competitor if india starts doing it and india becomes a prominent upload of these products then the rest of the world can also do it but i think that's the challenge.
8:41 am
i. know fargas claims to understand poor people's inability to access drugs and for that reason it gives glivec for free to fifteen thousand patients and meet with the help of a program that is supervised by the max foundation. and. has been approved. and. physicians. to give them money and foundation and.
8:42 am
mr vince devised a doctor i'm self was diagnosed in two thousand and four with clinic my load leukemia. his doctor was read sturtevant of artist program and referred him to the max foundation. the drug. is an expensive drug and. even for me it would have been very difficult to be able to afford this drug and to be able to use it without extreme discomfort to my finances and to my way of living so i would not have honestly been able to afford the drug if it was not for this wonderful foundation and people the drug is given to the patients life for as long as the physician says they need it the drug is given it's a big boon the pharma company has this kind of project. x. is a drug is this drug is
8:43 am
a drug. fifteen thousand patients take three hundred thousand take beam out. doctor but the health care system cannot rely on novartis as project. the head. of this group certain hospitals. and so they do need to go from that point of view. to the efforts which the two should. social responsibility to note if the poor and to make use of to. succumb to the deceased because of the ability to and. that drug. i think. we're going to go digital the price is the only
8:44 am
industry specifically mentioned in the constitution and. that's because a free and open process is critical to our democracy correct albus. in fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the corporate takeover of our government and across several we've been hijacked why a handful of transnational corporations will profit by destroying what our founding fathers once it's all just my job market and on this show we reveal the big picture of what's actually going on in the world if we go beyond identifying the problem trucks and rational debate and a real discussion that critical issues facing america find the book deal ready to join the movement then walk away from the big picture. please. please. please.
8:45 am
please. please. play .
8:46 am
live. for several years miss minnelli and mr i have been receiving their hiv medicine from the doctors without borders clinic in mumbai. they were too expensive for private patients i didn't have an income and couldn't work so it was impossible for me to pay the medical bills. left everything in the hands of god i will live out the time that i am given i cannot take the medicine the drug on the market was too expensive. for the money i thought of where to get the money. or if i should take the drug
8:47 am
today leave it i will take it tomorrow. is something i always thought about the money. when i started taking the medicines here my health improved i gained weight and i eat drink maddi and don't even think about the fact that i'm ill now i feel very good now i feel that i will live. eighty percent of the drugs used by doctors without borders in their missions to offer life to patients worldwide are generic drugs from india . that is why the organization is one of the swiss companies most ardent opponents in this legal battle. it's not that you have drugs they disappear from m.s.f. clinics don't want to or the next week or next month why didn't they. be able to treat cancer be able to treat hepatitis would we be able to treat drug resistant
8:48 am
tuberculosis drug resistance. m.s.f. . genetics will not be able to expand and treat in the same manner that we have done for example in sub-saharan africa. in america. saying that we should stop. i mean that is absolutely a logical isn't it. if you do not give a fair return. again money and therefore investment for future research. because it seemed to twenty percent off the top of the follow companies you spend on. it is not being given by the.
8:49 am
trust that husky generated by the company so i think you're to look at it. and not do more because to moral and. from left to copy from anybody. they didn't know want this to argue that. the patent system giving such privileges even having to ration. that innovation despite the patent system for example very few new antibiotics and why do we need new antibiotics we needed for needed infection so you need new antibiotics. why would you invest in a new compound when you put back to the same point again and again and keep extending your profit.
8:50 am
challenges that research costs huge amount to be to get a new chemical entity costs two to three billion dollars and the reason is issued degree will feel in the process of. there nor. to prom night is the government's coming to do research on nor do you know of any other organization coming to the research on abuses which will move profit and loss because if you do not allow people their returns they will just disappear because the show will run over and that's a logical i'm telling the logic it's not about profits at all let me put this question back to them. after defeating thing has come up right drugs have come up in the market i put this question back to them if you look into the
8:51 am
data you'll find that most of the drugs which have been researched. have come into the market and nearly once most of them there were more number which came before the feeding concept came in for example even if you look close this is the same or less. i think it was early in nineteen hundred a wonder what it was that the seem that is preventing you know why not is that if it has been vilified they don't see profit so it. this there's a simple reason they're only looking for profits and that is what my point is i think it's clear. there is a disease that affects that most have multiple parts of the walls or the mosque or . police prefer that's part of a society. then the pic's potential for profit is very low either because the patients can look to for themselves the treatment or because their state their
8:52 am
government they are also poor but the couple to for i don't agree i don't equate that at all and far we have to talk of the value of the medicine not the price of the medicine because water the value all seeing the smile of the mother is clear from the child disappeared from a life threatening disease waters a value that you put on improving life expectancy from forty years to eighty years what are the economic value if that person had been at your place and you had been in the place and that person would have been selling their drugs at such a high praise that you were not able to afford it. and would have would you have liked it i. don't. how did receive it. for maybe a bit more to put i use it as it suits them and. this
8:53 am
particular piece. our. principal multi-nationals should remember. to consider even. in richmond the experience of the city. to be perfectly clear . today the supreme court is to issue its verdict and put an end to the sensational court battle of novartis india that has lasted for seven years.
8:54 am
the court's verdict will be the one to determine whether millions of patients worldwide will continue to have access to affordable drugs. and everyone is holding their breath. we're getting breaking news and this is dissipating and we will be getting news from the supreme court that the apex court has in fact dismissed no vortices appeal this is what would. be. taking a very strange ordered against indian companies for manufacturing. companies to go so that. there's the way for indian companies to continue copying the medicine and i mean to say it means poor people will still be able to get cheap generic forms of lifesaving treatment.
8:55 am
according to the courts dismiss this decision no payton rights are given to the. original pharmaceutical formulation of an older drug. the decision is to set a legal precedent for other similar cases for other pharmaceutical industries taining similar pain rights. but the great interest at stake do not leave much hope that something similar will not be attempted again in the future. for now this important battle has finally been won. even before. even after the. move. and more
8:56 am
greedy that is what i think this is something dirty to have to change i mean because once it comes to the general people of the poor people i think that that aspect has to go i cannot accept that people can die if there is treatment awaits save their lives that there is no law system all the can explain or justify consensus and growth. science which cannot help society had no meaning. so what are the signs be to it has to be to transfer to the society has to be for the benefit of society this earth has enough to go ahead and feed all the living beings. it has enough. but it is not enough to sustain one person's leave. ok.
8:57 am
