Free Speech on Adverse Effects Awaken India vs Serum Institute

The right to free speech in the public interest is contentious. During Covid-19, this right is under intense scrutiny with proponents for and against making robust arguments, depending on which side of the medical industrial complex fence they stand, and what value is attributed to free speech in difficult times.

A case in point is the TNI case, which includes including Trialsite News and others as applicants. Another groundbreaking case is Missouri vs Biden, where the judge compelled government to stop colluding with social media companies that suppress the flow of information related to Covid-19.

Another critical case of extreme importance takes us to India. It is a battle between the Awaken India Movement (AIM) and the Serum Institute of India (SII) - where a recent court judgement raises questions about free speech, public interest and health.
