"J'accuse": A Matter of Genocide Plea for Access to Cure Hepatitis C
Journal Title: HIV/AIDS Research and Treatment – Open Journal - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
To start this reflection I recall what François Emile Zola stated in his “J’accuse”. With this undiplomatic way of getting into the topic, Emile Zola shows his outrage in a letter to the President of France at that time, Felix Faure. With a title which calls the attention, he says what the rest of the people do not dare say and he does not care about being accused of “criminal defamation”. He wants to say what he thinks and he does so in an accusatory and challenging tone.
