  Title The negative impact of the war on drugs on public health : the hidden hepatitis C epidemic Type Report

  Abstract Hepatitis C is a highly prevalent chronic viral infection which poses major public health, economic and social crises, particularly in low and middle income countries. The global hepatitis C epidemic has been described by the World Health Organization as a ‘viral time bomb’, yet continues to receive little attention. Access to preventative services is far too low, while diagnosis and treatment are prohibitively expensive and remain inaccessible for most people in need. Public awareness and political will with regard to hepatitis C are also too low, and national hepatitis surveillance is often non-existent. The hepatitis C virus is highly infectious and is easily transmitted through blood-to-blood contact. It therefore disproportionately impacts upon people who inject drugs: of the 16 million people who inject drugs around the world, an estimated 10 million are living with hepatitis C. In some of the countries with the harshest drug policies, the majority of people who inject drugs are living with hepatitis C – more than 90 percent in places such as Thailand and parts of the Russian Federation. The hepatitis C virus causes debilitating and fatal disease in around a quarter of those who are chronically infected, and is an increasing cause of premature death among people who inject drugs. Globally, most HIV-infected people who inject drugs are also living with a hepatitis C infection. Harm reduction services – such as the provision of sterile needles and syringes and opioid substitution therapy – can effectively prevent hepatitis C transmission among people who inject drugs, provided they are accessible and delivered at the required scale. Instead of investing in effective prevention and treatment programmes to achieve the required coverage, governments continue to waste billions of dollars each year on arresting and punishing drug users – a gross misallocation of limited resources that could be more efficiently used for public health and preventive approaches. At the same time, repressive drug policies have fuelled the stigmatisation, discrimination and mass incarceration of people who use drugs. As a result, there are very few countries that have reported significant declines in new infections of hepatitis C among this population. This failure of governments to prevent and control hepatitis disease has great significance for future costs to health and welfare budgets in many countries. In 2012 the Global Commission on Drug Policy released a report that outlined how the ‘war on drugs’ is driving the HIV epidemic among people who use drugs. The present report focuses on hepatitis C as it represents another massive and deadly epidemic for this population. It provides a brief overview of the hepatitis C virus, before exploring how the ‘war on drugs’ and repressive drug policies are failing to drive transmission down. The silence about the harms of repressive drug policies has been broken – they are ineffective, violate basic human rights, generate violence, and expose individuals and communities to unnecessary risks. Hepatitis C is one of these harms – yet it is both preventable and curable when public health is the focus of the drug response. Now is the time to reform.

  Title Die Rechtsprechung und Gerichtspraxis in der Invalidenversicherung und ihre Wirkungen : Bericht im Rahmen des mehrjährigen Forschungsprogramms zu Invalidität und Behinderung (FoP-IV) Type Report
  Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages xxxi, 116  
  Keywords jurisdiction; social insurance; economic impact; research; disabled; Switzerland  
  Abstract Die Untersuchung befasst sich mit der zentralen Frage, welche Wirkungen von den Entscheiden des Eidgenössischen Versicherungsgerichts (EVG) und von den kantonalen Gerichten ausgegangen sind. Diese Frage wird anhand von zwei Wirkungsdimensionen untersucht: 1. Welche betrieblichen Auswirkungen haben die Rechtsprechung und Gerichtspraxis auf die Vollzugsstellen der Invalidenversicherung (IV-Stellen) hinterlassen? 2. Wie haben sich die Rechtsprechung und Gerichtspraxis auf die Rentenentwicklung ausgewirkt? L’étude vise à analyser les effets des arrêts du Tribunal fédéral des assurances (TFA) et des tribunaux cantonaux. Nous avons effectué cette analyse selon deux points de vue : 1. effets de la jurisprudence et de la pratique des tribunaux sur le fonctionnement des organes d’exécution de l’assurance-invalidité (offices AI), 2. effets de la jurisprudence et de la pratique des tribunaux sur l’évolution du nombre de rentes. Lo studio analizza la questione fondamentale degli effetti prodotti dalle decisioni del Tribunale federale delle assicurazioni (TFA) e dei tribunali cantonali. Gli effetti studiati sono due: 1. Quali ripercussioni hanno avuto la giurisprudenza e la prassi giudiziaria sull’attività degli organi di esecuzione dell’assicurazione invalidità (uffici AI)? 2. Come hanno influito la giurisprudenza e la prassi giudiziaria sull’evoluzione del numero delle rendite? The study is concerned with the central questions which arise from the rulings of both the Federal Insurance Court (FIC) and the cantonal courts. The examination of these issues is based on two impact dimensions: 1. What is the operational impact of case law and judicial practices on Invalidity Insurance implementing bodies (referred to hereafter as IV offices)? 2. What is the impact of case law and judicial practices on the Invalidity Insurance pension trends?
