All right, thats the headlines. One whos coming up here and out 0 right off to the stream. Now we understand the differences between subconscious across the wow. So no matter how you take it out here to bring you the news and current to fast the t challenges there. The hi im from e, i k times to watching the stream made in could not be the solution to vaccine and equity across the african continent. We have seen firsthand what happens when there is a global pandemic, and vaccines are available to everybody who needs them. So what is africa and african countries stopped, which is the other vaccines. Could that be a game changer . We saw that conversation with question. Over the past 3 years, our team has studied the Global Access and in equities to corporate 19 vaccines. And we see clearly that lack of manufacturing capacity, especially in africa as been a key driver of global in equity is that means there has to be significant investment, promote the public in the private sector. There has to be access to intellectual property and know how we need the human capital. So significant training and Capacity Building is necessary. Weve got to rework the supply chains to ensure that they are adequate for regional manufacturing. And we have to make sure that regulatory support and Regulatory Oversight are appropriate to ensure that were developing quality assure to the axioms around the world. Oh, thats kind of nice when i love is, but there is a list that possibilities as a strategy at least one strategy i im going to welcome petra and also i talked to jody. I know you know dr. Yadi and they both got to introduce themselves to you in the context of making that seems in africa. Petra, welcome to the stream. Please say hello, talk to you as around the welcome to the well what you do to me. Thank you very much. I am theater to launch. Im the managing director of action by technology biologics. Be biased in cape town, and weve all the w h a m r and i hung up making em all Night Technology accessible to actually go to produce that own m automotive ecc. Right. To be on the shadow, right to having thought to go to it is so lovely to have you. Weve been talking to a lot of the past couple of days, but this is something quite fresh. A new tension, a positive. We might not want it through. You well, what you do was wonderful to be with. You find me in this way to be able to show the sisters my name. Dont tell you. I do like to just talk to ya. D, i was simple. Have so to show really the most positive one is that i should be offered to you. Yeah. Because actually delivery lines as well as im special on board for the access to the tools accelerate to which is the global level platform situated at w h. S. All right, get to have highlighted good to have when else as well. If youre watching right now youre on youtube. You an important part of our conversation. Put your comments or questions right here. Be part of todays show, a fax, im so i guess petra and adult theory, we have to show these for our audience. I see why we all right now. So one percent of vaccines use in africa, a made in africa. Shocking. 90 percent of that things use in africa in poor to 8 point one percent of the global supplies vaccines produced in africa. 25 percent of the Global Supply vaccines is used in africa. So a big can use out of vaccines. A very small producer of vaccines. Why is that that in balance . Petra, we stopped a say me many reasons 50. This is the reality. We just not knew this has been east g for 10 years. But the one thing that the coast funds they make of done is to really surface this reality and create a stream of energy that will change it. So there is and speed, lack of capacity. Reasons being us that the global supplies dont mean nights the landscape. The reason being that these dave is never a strategy that was comprehensive creation of when it goes system and implemented. Now we have so strategy and this strategy we have started to implement. So this time were going to get it right. Getting roy strikes me is the variance of Scientist Research as an adult because on the african continent and some of the Amazing Research that was done during the beginning of, at the level kind of way. The way in right now came from within the continent. So its not the brain power is not the intelligence. Is it just money . The, sorry. Was the was the electricity money and its power. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Um i, i would say that we, we absolutely have the capacity and we often hear you just have some petra petro districts, some incredible why we often hear that there is no, you know, that wed have to import the capacity. The capacity exists within i forgot the, the, the, the note, the know how the, the switches, the ability is inherent, keep them any of all diaspora is all the ones who was getting any of these manufacturing areas around the world. But it is power and it is also the responsibility of leadership, but it is governance and theres an opportunity within this crisis. This is a moment to go home. Ive purchased said that, but what the time, debit has done is shot a magnifying glass and one of the activities in the world that we live in. And that is now showing us, or as africa the we need to be in charge not to support vaccines. Boulevard, health security, smoke fluently, you know, not just vaccine production, but all that medical kinds of measures. We also dont top testing. We dont have the diagnostics capacity, not just because they put for a myriad of, of, of, of, of elements and illnesses. We also dont have the therapeutics capacity. Were not able to right now, the african continent. There is no pets of it, which is but the tablet does your to treat, to treat kind of it. And, and why is that . Because people like petro opportunities, i offered that aspect and also offerings instead of golf to be able to make these drugs. But the know that the technical transfer and the sharing of that property is national. Its 8. 0, oh. All detecting technology. Yeah. Get you to technical. Yeah, no, thats of people like petro, im looking at the world say, come on, come to us on 2 projects. Come on, were ready. We ask the know how we have the capacity. We just need you not to give us permission, but we need you to, to, to, to lead is to this mobile can recognize the advocates. How security is also global. How security advise you by . So yeah, do you right, the needs to be a can do attitude to it has to all in the type of polluting pockets on the continent. But without building a policy environment and without building a vertically integrated 6, we cannot hondas in liberty each the value of all the knowledge, i think would weve demonstrated the continent in, in, in buddhist capacities, over the last 18 months. He said wed have to scientific base, we have some technical advice. We need infrastructure if we need investment and we need a policy environment. Ductless stimulants looks to me like local production and local procurement with all that. We will not have a sustainable sick day. So this isnt, it goes system that needs to be created, a free light treat quality regulation quality, and a market place to view forms that will procure locally and not only global procure after this issue if you are building an entire industry oh, most from scratch and i say this is not on the oh yeah, yes, yes, no. Okay. Even if its not by us, i mean, it fits with several countries getting together with the w. H o giving the support of this is huge as it let me start with some the i do understand and that is what all the vaccine needs. Of course, we were in a global pandemic, so this kind of it. But be young that dont d o d. What else . The stairs, measles, theres this rebel out. Does that mean something that is like person via to my heart and i am currently visiting, visiting sort of the global how sort of gurus headquarters of the wild to geneva. Ive just recently been talking to some people about h b, d vaccines and also the testing the diagnostics for the, for the human popular and the virus, which is you know, that but basically the cause of psycho cancer. We have vaccines are best practices can prevent this. We have testing the compromises we in africa need to be able to look beyond kind of that we need to be able to look at the fact that not every efforts in countries they should be able to produce. Because the backseat, i mean that people talked about producing the shop and the re, we must be realistic, but there was sort of the capacity, but everybodys produced just kind of it. So thats not to the future thats just to protect and ill goes and when its on the content. Next, lets look to things like its like php. So, um, the, the, the, the, the vaccine portfolio for goes when the next book just seems like, you know, aspirin in south africa now looking to produce a, the sort of suite to Childhood Immunization vaccine. We must be able to have regional Production Capacity on the african continent because we need to protect all of the security. What happened jerichos, it was the other countries you know, stopped. Thats actually the vaccine export because they were protecting that sovereignty. And that is, you know, we, thats understandable, but the world cannot say to africa, you must not produce your own what, what petro say, actually correct. We need the policy environment. But when we look about policy environment, we must 1st of all say, we need to look at the leadership in all of that. When i get ahold of me, does not own self accountable. Yeah. How, how about, so from i, were talking about leadership. Im going to go to the head of the about health organization, dr. Petros, and this is what she said last year. And im just looking here. It was almost a year ago to the date. And this is about the potential for what can be the cheapest in the applicant content areas. In 2 days, im delighted to announce the 1st 6 african countries that youd receive technology from the have to produce their own and might in a box ins, egypt, kenya, Nigeria Center go south africa and twentys. Yeah. More than 80 percent of the population of africa years is yet to receive a single those modules. Basically, an equity has been driven by the fact that globally vaccine production is concentrated in a few, mostly high income countries. Pressure that the announcement made me smile. One was because it was helpful and the other one is like dr. Terrace is almost like a game show house and i can test since im going to be agent in kenya. And jerry, its sunday goes, im advocating is. Yeah. But it is a little bit like that, isnt it . How transformative could this be . The tech that is coming your way. A say me usually, maybe just to circle back on your previous question and we have identified 20 cheaper 22 prodigy vaccines on this continent. Okay. Those of the vaccines which are not only for the routine vaccine nation, but also for outbreaks about a lot less the vaccines for each of the new click to diseases. So there is, there is a Clear Strategy and a demonic, and a need to be an identified. So it came back to dr. Teachers announcement. It was amazing. Thats 5 companies in 5 countries on the continent will have access to future relevant m, automated technology. Through this program, we have already had tanisha, synagogue, tanisha, and egypt at s, each end receiving the 1st Knowledge Transfer for him on. And i, technology, we will receive send a goal in the next month, and we are waiting for nigeria and kenya, 5 that already being being tried and by the school ready, ready to to see if the 1st acknowledge it package. So this program is building future relevant capacity for in our night vaccine production, it diversify the platforms in egypt, and it adds platforms to new companies in the idea, kenya, seeing the goal. And of course buyback being expanded and being one of the full most entities. This is fundamentally a game changer if on and i technology is, is it has a problem. This for innovation, it has a problem, is not only for cobit 19, in fact, beyond that actual community. Yeah. Yeah. Could, it has a purpose for malaria. It has a prominent but, but, but weve, weve had so many promises on the continents. Im going to go back to much point and also patronize point about it, about policy. And what is that, you know, the, a boucher declaration that all need has made in africa was to try to you. Well, 21 years ago now i was trying to use a good test. Went to im so i wasnt, wasnt born yogi knows what need was the, we read about it more than 20 years ago. We dont know about this. What we write about charles street. I dont. 20 years ago. I actually have to confess that i was in a breach of that day. It was a 20 and it was may in 2020, that the declaration was, was decided by all the ages that they would commit 50 percent to Health Budget where all week today, i think only one country in africa has reached out 50 percent. So i dont want to insult anybody, so i wont mention which ones in case im wrong and this is investment. So what petros talking about, we cant always have, you know, the world is receiving us. Its not investing also in out of health security. And for me, that is where we the salt because of the buck stops. It has, you know, i have been known to say during the early days because it, but it could be, had it originated in africa. The world would have locked up, knocked us away. And throw away the key that would be no operational speed. That would be no investment in our indeed because we have to develop all those. Or we have to commit ourselves in all our leadership and we have to push, but not long after the 7 hour time. Thats not here. But that message is not nationally gets into the lead us only asking content. So we can cry as africans about inequity. If left us behind, this is i, i have to be very careful here, but this is a vaccine, a pol tate as you and its really good for you, is not good for africans. So only if those one of those things that bought the need a shift is so critical and that is some responsibility that showed a absolutely name is the week after look in whats fast. Yeah, we have to, we have to, you know, i mean when you point one, figure out whats the next full point towards yourself. And wed have to look, it was, you know, what dr. Tedra announced that and you know, i had the privilege, i mean ill just have the privilege of meeting with inputs for a few hours to talk to you about the future. Talking about how we, we, we, we, we and show that we do and show the house security, not just the aspect of it. Its like the america of, of, of, of, of asia. Ready many other parts of the wow, its thought to be to ship i so we have to, we have about policy environment. The picture was talking about and i had to do this in a guy i, petra, so im going to move this to a big picture. Even if we start to forget what the impact of cub assigned to us as people got with, i mean in 2000 as people got this internet about insurance or as people go to bounty by law. If we then also forget about cobit 19 on the in fact, lets move this conversation to associate, you know, make development for the leadership on this content. And what is the most important opportunity and responsibility is to develop this content vaccine, manufacturing capacity, capturing the value of this mess of monks in us week, a full vaccine supply. If we, even if we put the Health Issues aside, is associated can only development imperative. No need to can not invest in that building a workforce direct for any basement intellectual property and innovation of infrastructure to explore how successfully as the weight, if, why we culture. We are currently receiving vaccines from other middle income countries, most of the vaccines that would be received in africa today to be created. Not that heavy may not in high income countries, but in ancient country. So there is, and thats why i say that the very top of this is, theres all to, to, to this crisis. But what we need to do is also reported it, right, because where it comes, its, when people talk about vaccines, people think of coded vaccines. We need to begin to use the language of petra use earlier about the pledge 2 parties. Actually, you do know that there was the current, straightened up, the bone to which you know, thank goodness of yesterday. And i want to congratulate you again to the government and my sister j. The minister. Thats gonna bring j name right now. I for an outbreak. Oh, but yeah, those black sees they were in a freeze or somewhere the ones that are being used in a trial that a company considered it was not what it was, not was that while right to develop, the don, let me bring in the minutes of house for you guys and you just name to oh, so relevant as we look ahead to what is possible with faxing, how the important that that produce with is african countries. And this is what she had to say. October. The 122022 things relevant to our conversation. Right now shes working together. We shall come up with Practical Solutions to better protect our communities and reduce the chances. Of course, for the spread of this virus industry to a free kind of solutions for our free con, problems in the long term. As african governments, we need to boast to invest mentioned research and development, innovation and manufacturing of health tools, such as vaccines diagnostics and essential setup you takes to address the widest break spectrum of diseases that threaten us. All right, says absolutely. I have you 2 comments and questions for both of you. Petra helped me out with these patients a space around for you. So we have from his same day here. This is the best solution for the applicant content for the whole issue with faxing the next day. The best solution, petra response. I agree that one was easy. All right, bruce were so new chief is right and said that seeing oversight in african countries, would it be rigorous . No. Okay, okay, so im going to go to that question. That is, so this is what we get hit with all the time people say what is going to be the policy that is the sort of a, it was insulting, based on what youre really doing. Thats the, thats the confidence that, that was discovered on the conference. It was africa that identified the that the sequence, the, the, the, the only product there is in the world and try to shut this up. But then, so when do you know mich sequencing the benefits of, well its ok, but when were trying to produce magazines, people will say the quality is not good enough. That is not and asked you that we should break to the table. We and thats what, what, what, what change i change just set a minister of health of uganda about not Just Technology transfer or intellectual property. I think we need to move beyond that. We need to look at the integration within our confidence itself. We need to ourselves, begin to discover that the, the talents of the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the research and development capabilities, right, to the, enable us to create all those have a few take smaller diagnostics. And we need to work with the rest of the world. So the african, as she said, african solution for africa, the problems, no quality, i dont think is an issue. We have to know how on the continent, bruce. Oh patrick, i love this question. It comes from goldfish golf. Hes watching on youtube right now. I see. Could this have happened . Are you looking at that same production from the asking confident have we not experienced a pandemic . And i think it would have taken a long time because we had previously epidemics that was devastating for the continent, but need not to hold a global ruled. And they could not deliberate each. The energy of the support that weve done was covered 90. I believe that this has been defined damage has been a landmark change for this continent, and we will keep them in maine. Tim and we will implement the strategies that was born out of cobit 19 anxiety. And he had an inequality. So michael likely was such a troublemaker on you to share the patients because peoples lives so on the line. Shared with its easy for you to type that in the comments section. So to here already you have 30 seconds to respond to that said the patients. The, the whole conversation around sherry patients as be going on to several, several years will be bashing of each other. Again, i just said, ive also just had the privilege of meeting with the director general. And i dont the call joanna to discuss this very issue in the last in the last 24 hours to discuss how is it that we could move Forward Together . Is a global community, not as each other, but together with im in all around sharing the, the intellectual at the end going today because shes very much business oriented and shes like, we dont going to give away this. We have on the stream and she was really interesting on how she was defending the ability for companies to make money. They need to make money. Im not just going to give away. I would say that she, i mean, i think thats been upset, that theres been a lot of discussion around this. I wouldnt say that shes defending the companys ability to make money, but the fact is, so we have governments and as well, we have the us government, we have there is i would probably shoot ill, ill try protective of that those industries. And that is why i said, if you remember from the audio question, that it is not just about sharing the tax, but it is about the innovation within our own confidence. Because ro was not built in that a. So we cant always sit back or wait for somebody to share a text, we have to begin now the research and development into creating the diagnostics. My know, you know, that as far as companies both semi golf and can you that are about to create begins develop diagnostics capacity. But its so gross and local. So we need to look at that was we also work hand in hand to the pharmaceutical industry of who petro is, want you to know the fall of the african found that we have to look at how we move to get the had to be let me go right to the now support. Yeah, cuz shes doing they, they are in the pitcher. If you take us 25 years into the future, what is the best Case Scenario . So that seems being made in africa. Will africa be exporting faxing . Is that possible . Yes, i think it will multiple last multiple companies with multiple multiple platforms and actually africa will contribute to vaccine innovation globally. We have the ability once we spoke the sick to, to innovate. We will good during the right out, and i need to lecture property, and i hope that we will be open to share it in benefits sharing agreement. It is not to be monopolized. It is to be shed in license agreements that has benefits for every body and not to be hold close to keep them and not, not for you. I think these are different rules. We need the balance to be restored and not make way with ip. It will give you the way i think we need to use intellectual property as an ablest. Why not a petra thought he already knew is on each of thank you so much. Is it a very vibrant of vigorous conversation . Im going to be following with great interest, how a vaccine for adoption is happening in africa when it is happening in africa. And you can be show that we were put on that right here on the stream. As of watching, ill see you next time, take care of the the a just to put out a nother fire that had been a rather large across the country for days. Yesterday, another business good. My entire life, fire fighters. Theyre saying that theres very little they can do with these extremely heavy wind while the world focusing a lot on the tourist, the local real desperation here about how much theyve lost 35 square kilometer as of last greenforest and woodland has been burned. Really does resemble an army getting landscape a frank assessments 3000000000. 00. Is it going to be enough to get focused on the economy back on track . The short answer is no informed opinions for those who are attempting to flee to chat. How dangerous is that . The journey is incredibly difficult for many people to manage to get out, but its a great cost in depth analysis of the days. Headlines, questions really, who controls what goes on an outer space in the future will be governments for wont be big part of the corporations and individual super wealthy building. Theres inside story on al jazeera Award Winning program 27 years. As often as an assignment. Its an extreme formalized solution. I think its designed to break international format. Well, clos, janet, 80 percent of 80 carpet that is controlled by guns. Bring programs to if you dont pay any time on an amount of that. Im trying to push myself all the time. Pushing, pushing see the world from a different perspective. One out is aaron. The iran transfers 5 american citizens from prison to house arrest is part of a deal with the u. S. Washington assistant sanctions will remain the around the clock. This is out 0 in life and also coming up west African Leaders activate this done by military force which could be sent to cooper this year. But they say they will
