Great to see that @SDoughtyMP has written to @MattHancock and @RoryStewartUK calling on the UK Gov to support the #TransparencyResolution at #WHA72. UK must support price lowering measures for medicines! Read article: appghivaids.org.uk/news Read letter: bit.ly/2X12MYj

Why is the question “what about the men” only asked in sessions on gender equality & why only to women panellists? Why don’t the men who ask this question take responsibility to raise it with other men in all male panels or male dominated discussions on NCD or health financing?
