Princess Dina Mired: Equity and Access in Cancer Immunotherapy

Princess Dina Mired, Past President of the Union for International Cancer Control, Member of WHO Expert Technical Group for the Elimination of Cervical Cancer, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“‘It’s all very well… this amazing development in immunotherapy and promising results – that is if you can access it, right?

But what about accessibility for the 70% of cancer patients who literally die in Africa and other developing countries that don’t even have yet the traditional treatments yet on hand? So the gap is widening.

We really should be striving also to find the common pathways for scalability, access and equity… Because precision without equity is not progress. It is privilege.’ – HRH Princess Dina Mired
