A few months ago we launched VaxPaL, a patent landscape on #COVID-19 #vaccines, as an Excel sheet. We have now turned it into a fully searchable online database with a similar structure as #MedsPaL. Have a look and share any suggestions for further improvement.
MPP’s patents database #VaxPAL is now freely available online! VaxPaL👇 ✅provides info on the patent status of #COVID19 #vaccines worldwide ✅builds on MPP’s 10-year experience in mapping patents on key #health tech through #MedsPaL Explore it now! bit.ly/3pjSjXh
When people have access to NCD health services, they are better equipped to escape poverty, benefit from opportunities, and lead productive lives. They are also more resilient for when things go wrong and are better equipped to weather a pandemic. We need urgent funding for NCDs.

Shock of shocks! A health care system which prioritizes the profits of health insurance companies and pharmaceutical manufacturers over the health of its people is ranked dead last among other major countries! We need Medicare for All.
Stunning new report ranks US dead last in health care among richest countries—despite spending the most hill.cm/vtH3SsG
