Many people suffer and die young because they cannot access essential medicines. This book argues that people have a right to access these medicines and proposes some new Global Health Impact labelling, investment, and licensing strategies that encourage pharmaceutical companies to improve global health (global-health-impact.org/new). The idea is to rate these companies based on their medicines' impacts. Highly rated companies will get a Global Health Impact label to use on their products. Socially responsible investment companies and universities might also take the ratings into account in making investment or licensing decisions. After arguing that people do have a right to access essential medicines, this book explores this proposal, its philosophical justification, and its prospects for success"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a Global Health Impact (Organization : Binghamton, N.Y.) 650 0 $a Drug accessibility. 650 0 $a Medical care, Cost of. 650 0 $a Drugs $x Marketing. 650 0 $a Social responsibility of business. 650 0 $a Consumption (Economics) $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Pharmaceutical industry $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Right to health. 650 0 $a World health. 650 2 $a Health Care Costs 650 2 $a Global Health 650 6 $a MeÌdicaments $x AccessibiliteÌ. 650 6 $a Soins meÌdicaux $x CouÌt. 650 6 $a Entreprises $x ResponsabiliteÌ sociale. 650 6 $a Industrie pharmaceutique $x Aspect social. 650 6 $a Droit aÌ la santeÌ. 650 6 $a SanteÌ mondiale. 650 7 $a Consumption (Economics) $x Moral and ethical aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00876465 650 7 $a Drug accessibility. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01749120 650 7 $a Drugs $x Marketing. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00898840 650 7 $a Medical care, Cost of. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01013902 650 7 $a Pharmaceutical industry $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01060175 650 7 $a Right to health. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01759363 650 7 $a Social responsibility of business. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122851 650 7 $a World health. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01181338 776 08 $i Online version: $a Hassoun, Nicole. $t Global Health Impact $d New York, NY : Oxford University Press, [2019] $z 9780197515013 $w (DLC) 2020008330 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20240724074617.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E53413DE214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
