- Year of Publication: 2021
- ISBN: 0
Course Duration:
670 minutes comprising of 10 episodes
Course Background:
Is it time to reconsider patents for vaccines or the working requirement associated with patents?
The COVID-19 pandemic yet again brought into focus the prevailing unease when it comes to pharmaceutical patents. India spearheaded the ongoing tussle to waive IP rights under the TRIPS Agreement but the debate is as polarized as ever. Interestingly, India has pushed for such a waiver despite having unique provisions compelling patentees to ‘work’ patents in India, subjecting them to compulsory licenses to serve the large public interest, apart from having special safeguards to prevent evergreening in the pharmaceutical field. The push towards a complete waiver at the global level suggests that even these safeguards are considered to have their limits. On the other hand, the question is raised whether the industry would have displayed such vigour and efficiency in developing vaccines and other solutions had there not been some guarantee of protection.
