Today's program centers on how the big pharmaceutical corporations, with the US government in tow, are threatening the health care of the population, not only in the United States, but in Asia and Latin America as well. Host Jorge Gestoso, interviews Peter Maybarduk, director of Public Citizen's Global Access to Medicines. Maybarduk reports that through Wikileaks they have uncovered a draft document on intellectual property of the Trans Pacific Pact that demonstrates that Washington, pressured by the major pharmaceutical companies, is pushing to expand drug monopolies in the region and drive up prices on medicines. teleSUR
