At our state party convention in Hamburg on December 23, 2019, we adopted our election program for the Hamburg state election on February 23, 2020.
We demand that an additional 5% of the state budget be invested in the development of effective medicine against age-related diseases. Since all people are directly or indirectly affected by age-related diseases, all people would also benefit from this. Half of these additional investments is to go into the construction and operation of new public research facilities. The other half is to be used to train more people in the relevant fields and to expand the corresponding departments at universities.
In our view, for ethical and economic reasons it is very important to considerably accelerate the development of effective medicine against age-related diseases through substantially more public investment.
Here is our election program for the 2020 Hamburg state election
