PEOPLE BEFORE PATENTS:
THE LIVES OF MILLIONS ARE AT STAKE!!

SIGN-ON TO HELP PROTECT ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE MEDICINES!!

Pharmaceutical company Novartis is taking the Indian government to court. If the company wins, millions of people across the globe could have their sources of affordable medicines dry up.

Millions of people around the world today rely on affordable medicines produced in India. India's law contains elements that help put people before patents, but Novartis is taking the Indian government to court to force a change in the law. Neither Novartis, nor any company, should stand in the way of people's right to access the medicines they need.

We urge Novartis to DROP THE CASE now against the Indian government.
People before Patents: The lives of millions are at stake!
