Die große Abhängigkeit der EU vom asiatischen Pharmamarkt macht die Arzneimittelversorgung unsicher. Der #CriticalMedicinesAct soll dem nun entgegenwirken. Forschende sehen einen wichtigen Schritt, aber auch einige Versäumnisse: www.sciencemediacenter.de/angebote/neu...
📢 The @ec.europa.eu unveils the #CriticalMedicinesAct to tackle medicine shortages! We urge patient voices — especially those with #RareDiseases like #BleedingDisorders — to be heard. Let’s ensure equitable access for all! Read our statement 👉 ow.ly/2iQ050VfP6J
Every cancer patient should have timely access to the life-saving treatments they urgently need 💊 Today’s #CriticalMedicinesAct paves the way for greater availability of and access to cancer drugs through collaborative procurement.
👉 Our press reaction: www.cancer.eu/critical-med...
Medicine shortages take up an average of 10 hours per week in EU pharmacies. To prevent this, we need greater EU investment and proactive policies.
The #CriticalMedicinesAct will boost production, coordinate stockpiling, and ensure that all patients in the EU get the medicines they need.
💊 EU must boost pharma production to shield against trade wars
With growing global instability, boosting EU production is crucial. With the #CriticalMedicinesAct, we strengthen Europe’s pharmaceutical resilience.

Europe's medicine security requires immediate action.
To address this, we recommend to:
💊 establish a new EU mechanism - the #CriticalMedicinesAct;
💊 encourage the development of innovative production technologies;
💊 adopt fair pricing mechanisms.

Potrzebne są specjalne programy i fundusze, które zachęcą firmy do produkcji leków krytycznych i ich składników na naszym kontynencie. Odpowiedzią ma być ustawa tzw. Akt o Lekach Krytycznych – #CriticalMedicinesAct.
One justification being given is that the #CriticalMedicinesAct is meant to be proposed (the next stage) within the first 100 days of the new Commission, which are up at the beginning of March. But this is also strange because this deadline isn't mentioned anywhere in the Commission's plans... 7/9
Strange developments re the EU's new #CriticalMedicinesAct. Widely considered the most important piece of health-related legislation announced for this mandate, but to have no impact assessment or genuine* public consultation, on the basis of its 'urgency'... 1/9
