Africans facing coronavirus must not suffer the injustices they saw with Aids | Lydia Namubiru

Patients were used as guinea pigs but denied access to resulting therapies. This time, Big Pharma must be held to account

The year I turned 11, my uncle Josiah Ssesanga was admitted to a hospital in Uganda with meningitis. It was 1994, and he was HIV positive. Between him and death stood a tattered post-civil war health system.

For my uncle’s particular infection – cryptococcal meningitis – there was a drug called Fluconazole. But he didn’t know it existed; regardless, he wouldn’t have been able to afford it. and even among patients who took it, only 12% survived beyond six months.
