Today, Doctors Without Borders (MSF) shared an open letter on social media with the employees of the US corporation Danaher and its affiliate companies to ask employees to join MSF and 150 organisations and health activists around the world in the ‘Time for $5’ campaign, and call on Danaher to drop the price of all life-saving GeneXpert tests to $5 a test. More affordable tests would help increase access to timely diagnosis and, thus, treatment for many more people, including for TB, HIV, hepatitis, COVID-19, Ebola, and sexually transmitted infections. In the open letter to employees here, MSF asks them to join us by:
1. Telling Danaher and Cepheid leadership how they can be more responsible in their business practices. Inputs on the Feedback Box hosted by TBFighters.org will be recorded anonymously.
2. Signing our petition for more affordable tests for low- and middle-income countries
