We take medicines to relieve pain, to alleviate the symptoms of diseases or to save our lives. It happens frequently that we spend significant sums on them, which in many instances account for the majority of our income. This is why dishonest people, devoid of moral principles, counterfeit medicinal products. Unfortunately, it is sometimes the case that a patient dies as a result of taking these medicines. It is therefore necessary to step up precautions with regard to imports of drugs from third countries, to limit the sale of medicines over the Internet to a minimum, to initiate a campaign to raise patients’ awareness of the risks of taking non-certified counterfeit medicines and a campaign that ensures that those buying medicines are aware that counterfeit medicinal products are in circulation. I agree with the rapporteur that copyright protection is not a priority here. The most important aspect is human health and life, and it is our duty to do everything in our power to protect them."@en1
