The right to the highest attainable standard of health (Art. 12) 2000, para. 48
Paragraphe- Paragraph text
- Violations of the right to health can occur through the direct action of States or other entities insufficiently regulated by States. The adoption of any retrogressive measures incompatible with the core obligations under the right to health, outlined in paragraph 43 above, constitutes a violation of the right to health. Violations through acts of commission include the formal repeal or suspension of legislation necessary for the continued enjoyment of the right to health or the adoption of legislation or policies which are manifestly incompatible with pre existing domestic or international legal obligations in relation to the right to health.
