Today, one-third of the world's population lacks access to essential medicines; in the poorest parts of Africa and Asia this figure rises to one-half. Too often in the countries where MSF works, we cannot treat our patients because the medicines are too expensive or they are no longer produced. Sometimes, the only drugs we have are highly-toxic or ineffective, and nobody is looking for a better cure. Since 1999, MSF has been campaigning internationally to find long-term, sustainable solutions to this crisis. › more on access to medicines
