By the greater use of compulsory licenses, Brazil could lower drug
costs not only in Brazil, but in developing countries overall. At a
time when the New York Times is reporting that "the global battle
against AIDS is falling apart for lack of money," it is absolutely
essential that the price of lifesaving medicines in developing
countries be driven down to the absolute minimum possible.
With this in mind, I gave the following presentation on October 11 at
a conference of doctors and health care workers in Sao Paulo.
