The African Christian Democratic Party has applauded Minister of Health Aaron Motsoaledi for ensuring access to more affordable medicines.
It has been reported that pharmaceutical
companies are exploiting and depriving people in the country of medication they
need through the proposed patent laws.
ACDP MP Cheryllyn Dudley said we do
understand that profit margins will always be a priority for companies and
pharmaceutical companies are no exception, it is not and cannot be government’s
priority. Responsible government must
prioritise the needs of people living in South Africa and act in their
best interests.
