The US supports the rejection of patents for COVID-19 vaccines. This was stated by the United States Trade Representative Catherine Tai on her Twitter account.
According to her, the administration of US President Joe Biden supports the protection of intellectual property, but nevertheless, to help end the pandemic, it agrees to cancel patents for this category of drugs. Tai said that Washington will participate in negotiations within the World Trade Organization (WTO) on this issue. At the same time, she stressed that this may take some time.
Earlier, pharmaceutical companies appealed to the US government not to abandon the patent for coronavirus vaccines. As noted, lobbyists of the pharmaceutical industry held several private meetings with officials from the trade sector, as well as with representatives of the White House. During them, they pointed out that new technologies for the production of vaccines may fall into the hands of the authorities of Russia and China.
In October 2020, India and South Africa called on the states that produce coronavirus vaccines to temporarily abandon the patent for them. The move was intended to provide access to the vaccine to people in poor countries. The World Health Organization and more than 60 countries supported this initiative. However, the administration of former US President Donald Trump, along with the European Union, Great Britain and Switzerland, opposed the proposed measure.
