In an international effort to ramp up the COVID-19 vaccine production, the U.S. government is supporting a proposal to suspend patent rules.

In Canada, there are growing calls for the government to support lifting patents for COVID-19 vaccines and other coronavirus-related medical products that could potentially boost global access to supplies amid the pandemic.

In an open letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau April 24, more than 900 medical students and health advocates across the country urged the Canadian government to sign a proposal for an intellectual property (IP) waiver to enable patent-free, widespread manufacturing of COVID-19 medicines and vaccines.

Jackson Proskow explains what that means for developing nations and Canada.
