Pharmaceutical companies around the world are doing everything they can to develop tests, a vaccine and medication to fight the coronavirus. As a committed shareholder, we, together with other parties, call on the pharmaceutical sector to pursue maximum collaboration in order to minimise the spread of the virus and its consequences worldwide. We call on them to seek maximum collaboration with each other, public authorities and research centres to that end, and not to allow themselves to be guided by short-term financial motives.

Only together can we defeat the coronavirus.
