– No medical care for family members other than employees and their spouses
– Out-of-pocket costs for workers for the purchase of medicines will prove to be an unsurmountable barrier to access for most of them
– No commitment to using the least costly medicines( generics instead of brand-name drugs)
– No promise to sustain the initiative over the long-term and thus uphold continuity of a coherent program for sick people
– An unreliable cost-sharing scheme between Coca-Cola and its affiliates(in particular the smallest, which employ 64% of Coca-Cola’s workforce)
– No clear commitment to a rapid roll-out of programs of access to medicines
– No plan to expand the initiative outside Africa (yet people in many countries outside the African continent are heavily impacted by AIDS, such as those living in India, China etc…)
