What we have today in the field of drug development, and we have had this for many years now, is the development of cost-inefficient late-stage treatments that maximize revenue exploitation, but often don't even work. Instead, what we need is early-stage and preventative diagnostic measures, and cheap scalable generic small molecules or vaccines, coupled with lifestyle and environmental changes, that together reverse or treat the condition when it's still reversible or treatable. We will not get this from the FDA because it's 100% in bed with the scientific mercenaries that like to call themselves scientists. Moreover, I assert that most of the ones downvoting my comments here represent the mercenaries that work in the industry to earn some of this exploitative revenue for themselves, and they don't want the size of the pie to be reduced.
