How else would you suggest. Nationalise all pharmaceutical companies and fund their R&D budgets through the public purse? What additional tax burden do you expect that will create?

Currently research is conducted at universities, funded by govt and monetised by pharma Remember the Cambridge AstraZeneca vaccine? I’m merely suggesting that a better solution is not beyond the wit of man

I do remember. Who do you think funds a lot of the Cambridge labs used to produce that vaccine?

I’m not wasting my time with anymore of this nonsense There is no better way than the current model whereby tax payers fund the research that big pharma turns into obscene profits Happy now? Good
