Dear all,

Hope this email finds you well.

On June 6, the Wikimedia Foundation sent a letter to the USTR thanking Ambassador Katherine Tai for her support for a TRIPS waiver, which if agreed to at the WTO would allow the necessary intellectual property protections to prevent and treat COVID-19. We also urge the U.S. government to take an active role in the WTO negotiations.

You can find our statement and the thank you letter sent here https://wikimediapolicy.medium.com/restoring-global-public-health-our-thank-you-letter-to-ustr-ambassador-katherine-tai-59bbf20ac5c4.

Best, Amalia
