Mellouk's call: access planning from the R&D stage. Broad, transparent voluntary licensing. Technology transfer. Rapid registration. Generic competition. Public pricing. And when licenses fail, TRIPS flexibilities must stay on the table. #MakeMedicinesAffordable #AccessToMedicines

”We are learning to license earlier without necessarily learning to license inclusively. The major gap remains the middle-income countries that are excluded from voluntary licences. These are not countries without HIV epidemics."

”We are at risk of creating a two-tier system for access to the next generation of HIV technologies." @omellouk.bsky.social (ITPC) speaking yesterday at the @who.int / @unitaid.bsky.social / @unaids.org Annual Consultation on Access to HIV, TB, Hepatitis and STIs Medicines.

A revolution in cancer treatment? Or just a revolution in how much a company can charge for a medicine? Scientific breakthroughs should save lives, not come with luxury price tags. Medicines are not luxury goods. They are public goods. nytimes.com/2026/08/31/b... 📸Kim Raff, The New York Times

CLM is a tool to redistribute power… CLM is not a cost; it is an investment in health democracy. - José-Maria Di Bello #AIDS2026

How do you fund CLM when fiscal space is shrinking? How do you generate data when civic space is closing? How do you turn evidence into policy when the political environment is working against you? Those are the questions on the table at SY03 10:30 in Rm 204 #AIDS2026

Innovation without access is not progress. It is inequality. At the Future of HIV Markets Forum in Nairobi, ITPC called for a redesign of the rules — so public health, not commercial strategy, drives medical innovation. #MakeMedicinesAffordable

Communities generate data, deliver services, build trust, and sustain adherence. As health systems evolve, integration of HIV services is expanding. While we recognize its potential, we caution: integration without equity risks erasing the very populations most in need!

We don’t have a TB innovation problem. New tools and treatments exist. Stigma, weak systems, and lack of political will still stand in the way. This #WorldTBDay, we need to centre people, fund communities, and fix the systems that are failing them.
