报告摘要

Virtual Press Conference, May 3, 2024

Goals: Negotiators aim to finalise a legally binding instrument for pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response.
Progress: Gains in equity provisions, pathogen sharing mechanisms (Article 12), and foundational principles for losses or damage (Article 19).

Pathogen Access and Benefit Sharing (PABS): Complex due to technical, trade, intellectual property, and financial considerations. Agreement on fundamentals is under discussion.
Intellectual Property (IP): Balancing equitable access with research, industry, and trade interests remains a challenge. No final text agreed.
Funding and One Health: Lengthy negotiations pending alignment among agencies and ministries for financial mechanisms and cross-sectoral coordination.

Deadline: Member States may seek extension to May 10th.
Outcome Report: INB will report to WHO’s World Health Assembly (WHA) by this week, determining next steps if consensus not reached.
Adoption: Requires 60 ratifications for entry into force, followed by establishment of a Conference of the Parties (COP).

Matsoso: Strong belief in “equity” and “no either/or” between prevention and response. Urges no delay in achieving consensus for global health security.
Driece: Highlights the complexity of PABS and the need to focus on fundamentals for eventual technical operationalisation.
Challenges: Delays due to domestic reporting conflicts, misinformation, and misunderstandings of the negotiation process.
