世界卫生组织打击假冒医药产品行动

A WHO initiative to combat counterfeit medical products

假冒医药产品的危害很大,但尚无切实可靠的数据能反映这一问题的存在范围与严重程度,对其重视程度也远远不够。国际药品打假工作小组(IMPACT)是由世界卫生组织发起的打击假药的专项工作组,聚集了所有最重要的国际行动者,旨在协调国际有关方面,打击假冒医药产品,目标是促进和保护公众健康,重点在立法和行政管理的基础结构、行政管理的实施、执法、打假技术和信息交流5个方面采取行动。

Counterfeit medical product is a serious crime. However, reliable figures about the size of the problem and the prevalence are not available yet, and the problem has not been addressed seriously so far. International Medical Products Anti-Counterfeiting Taskforce （IMPACT） is a taskforce launched by WHO to gather all the most important international actors in the fight against counterfeiting. IMPACT aims at coordinating global action against the counterfeiting of medical products in order to promote and protect public health. Legislative and regulatory infrastructure, regulatory, implementation, enforcement, technology, communication are 5 areas of the action needs to be taken.
