Senior African academics issue statement of concern over proposed WHO pandemic treaty

This is a public statement by a group of African academics who are concerned by the proposed WHO pandemic treaty and IHR regulations, to be voted on in May.

They urge their governments to oppose the treaty and regulations change with all powers at their disposal.
