Don't pause with the cynicism just yet. They have patented the most expensive drug on the planet (at the time of registration) Zolgensma. Patients only need one dose, which costs about $2M. And if you look into the economics, it is not unreasonable. The development, testing and red tape, plus the short timeframe they have before patent expiration and the really limited number of patients... It is a really interesting ethical question.

Neva eva throwing my cinism away.. 😅 Imagine having the recipe for the drug that would cure all deseas and/or cancers. It's a one time pill.. You think they'll ever deploy it? Better to make the patient a forever customer and only produce short term medications. No one will ever convince me a Pharma company is there to create a permanent solution or cure and fix something. The incentives.. always the incentives. It is a really interesting ethical question indeed.
