Luis Alvarez Big pharmaceutical companies can still take legal action if the World Trade Organization decides to waive patent rights on Covid-19 vaccines. But their options - especially outside the US - are limited. And they have to decide if the optics are worth it, after a decision to file a lawsuit in South Africa challenging cheaper Aids drugs backfired. A potential World Trade Organization (WTO) waiver of patent and trade secret protections for Covid-19 vaccines would leave pharmaceutical companies with limited legal avenues to recover costs. The US on Wednesday expressed support for a temporary waiver, sending shares in several vaccine makers down the next day. The issue now faces thorny negotiations at the WTO, where several members, including Germany, have opposed efforts to skirt intellectual property rights. They say it would only complicate production and make companies less likely to respond in the future.
