Indian generic company Natco Pharma just announced rare disease drug Risdiplam could cost 97% less.
For TWN, this price difference should prime other countries to follow & allow generic manufacturing in the promotion of public interest.

Trump's aid cuts are bad news for international climate finance.
I looked through the available data to work out how bad...
Around 8% of the climate finance pledged to developing countries by rich countries last year came from the US.
Those funds are now under threat.
