GENEBRA - O Instituto Butant? vai produzir a vacina da gripe su?na, com ou sem a autoriza??o do governo federal. A ideia inicial ? produzir 100 mil doses, mas o total pode chegar a 1 milh?o se o v?rus se espalhar no Pa?s. Ontem, a entidade foi uma das poucas farmac?uticas convidadas pelo secret?rio-geral da Organiza??o das Na??es Unidas (ONU), Ban Ki-moon, para uma reuni?o em Genebra para montar uma estrat?gia de produ??o da vacinas contra o v?rus A (H1N1).

Mas o encontro mostrou que n?o h? acordo sobre como entregar as vacinas aos pa?ses pobres nem quais seriam os pre?os. Os ?nicos que prometeram ajudar a formar estoques de vacinas na ONU foram as empresas dos pa?ses em desenvolvimento. As multinacionais mantiveram seus planos em sigilo. Para o diretor do Butant?, Isaias Raw, a reuni?o deixou claro que existe um ?monop?lio? na produ??o de vacinas. ?H? um lobby para impedir que haja uma queda nos pre?os das vacinas. Esse grupo ? pior que o dos produtores de petr?leo?, disse.

Durante o encontro, a Organiza??o Mundial da Sa?de (OMS) iniciou negocia??es para garantir n?o apenas um pre?o adequado para as vacinas, mas uma garantia de que os pa?ses pobres ter?o acesso aos produtos. A decis?o sobre o in?cio da produ??o n?o foi tomada e alguns alertam que o dilema ? se essa fabrica??o geraria interrup??es no abastecimento de vacinas para a gripe sazonal. As informa??es s?o do jornal O Estado de S. Paulo.

GENEVA - The Office Butant? will produce the vaccine for swine flu, with or without the federal government. The initial idea is to produce 100 thousand doses, but the total could reach 1 million if the virus spread in the country yesterday, the organization was one of the few pharmaceutical invited the Secretary-General of the United Nations (UN), Ban Ki -moon, to a meeting in Geneva to mount a strategy for production of vaccines against the virus A (H1N1).



But the meeting showed that there is no agreement on how to deliver the vaccine to poor countries and what are the prices. The only ones who promised to help build stocks of vaccines at the UN were the firms of developing countries. Multinationals continued its plans in secrecy. For the director of Butant?, Isaias Raw, the meeting made clear that there is a "monopoly? the production of vaccines. ? There is a lobby to ensure that there is a drop in the price of vaccines. This group is worse than the producers of oil, "he said.



During the meeting, the World Health Organization (WHO) began negotiations to ensure not only an adequate price for the vaccines, but a guarantee that poor countries have access to products. The decision on the start of production was not taken, and some warn that the dilemma is to generate the manufacturing interruptions in the supply of vaccines for seasonal influenza. The information is the newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo.
