非洲领导人应对致人死亡和资助恐怖主义的假药问题

【此翻译由企业责任资源中心提供】

“假药致人死亡,也为恐怖主义提供资金。非洲领导人希望采取行动加以应对”,2020年1月18日

这些药品暗地里来自中国、印度和尼日利亚……在街头销售……假药的销售额约为2000亿美元,每年造成数万人死亡,阻碍了抗疟工作的进展……专家说,还资助了有组织犯罪。假药的危害在西非特别严重,那里……“你很穷,却花钱买那些会杀死自己的东西,”多哥总统福雷·纳辛贝(Faure Gnassingbé)说……“是的,它还没有被视为犯罪。”……

多哥总统周六在首都洛美与塞内加尔和乌干达领导人会面……加纳、刚果、尼日尔和冈比亚代表也签署协议,加强情报共享和边界安全……销售假药在多数国家是违法行为,但执法不力……位于伦敦的布拉柴维尔基金会(Brazzaville Foundation)估计,非洲每年约有12.2万儿童死于仿冒的抗疟药。该非盈利机构还表示,在一些地区,出售的药品中有60%是假药……

“这项卑鄙的贸易为犯罪分子和恐怖分子带来了巨额利润,破坏世界上一些最脆弱国家的稳定,” 布拉柴维尔基金会主席欧宗易(Jean-Yves Ollivier)说……假药贸易还涉及到一些犯罪团伙,有研究发现使用童工的恐怖组织也参与其中……有官员表示,那些武装分子通过袭击村镇、偷盗家畜、抢占金矿和绑架勒索等手段为战争筹集资金。他们也靠假药牟利。纳辛贝总统说,“恐怖分子现在从假药贸易中获利。”
