India seeks reforms in WHO

On May 12th the Indian Prime Minister addressed the Global Virtual Summit on Covid. Modi said the World Health Organisation must be reformed and strengthened to build a more resilient global health security architecture. Also, the rules of the World Trade Organisation need to be more flexible. At the summit hosted by US President Joe Biden, Modi also said India calls for “stream-lining WHO`s approval process for vaccines and therapeutics to keep supply chains stable and predictable”. Modi said WTO rules, particularly TRIPS, need to be more flexible. Prime Minister Modi also highlighted that as a responsible member of the global community, India would continue to play an active role by sharing its low cost indigenous COVID mitigation technologies, vaccines and therapeutics with other countries. He said that India is working to extend its genomic surveillance consortium and is using traditional medicine extensively. India has also laid the foundation for a WHO Centre for Traditional Medicine in India to make this knowledge available to the world.
