Abstract
Ensuring the supply of medicines is extremely important during major public health crises. Implementing compulsory licensing of pharmaceutical patents is a means to guarantee an adequate and effective supply of medicines. Although China’s current compulsory licensing system for pharmaceutical patents has clear legal provisions, there are many issues. To ensure the effective implementation of the system, it is necessary to relax the qualifications of the applicants, add new objects of compulsory licensing, clarify the reasons for application, and explore more efficient application procedures.
