    Cure for cancer: $9,999,999,999.98.9

    I am a stage 4 terminal cancer patient, but with targeted inhibitors I can stay alive, as long as I take the meds… the catch? They cost $3000 a month for life. I am fortunate to afford them NOW, but I can never retire. I lost my medical coverage because the diagnosing doctor reported that my cancer had been present for more than 4 years, while my medical coverage was only 3 years old. I had no clue that I had cancer. I have written to the founding pharmaceutical company to ask for some kind of help, but have received no reply. They make their real money from medical insurance companies, not individuals like myself.

    Unfortunately government isn’t capable of producing results like this. The only real solution Is for governments to reward drug companies for their r&d. This drug wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for profit.

    So they tested the drug on Africans only to go sell it to Americans and Europeans. So Africans are mere guinea pigs to them. Think about this: Africans had to get exposed to HIV/AIDS in order to guarantee that the vaccine works.

    This is weird because the rates have gone up for blacks. They’re up to something! They’re purposely injecting people with STDs to sell their pills. I truly believe that there’s something sinister going on

    This Doctor doesn't have a heart, how can you tell me this story, 40,000 dolars even how many Africans earn 10,000 dollars a year. Is like Staying on the 25th floor and telling a hungry man to fly to your floor to get food 😂😂
    Only God will have mercy on us or else we are dead already due to financial problem and difficulties in living the life. Father May Your Will Be Done 🙏

    Maybe it's time for all nations to stop being naive.
    Those companies need supervision and regulation.
    If they discover breakthroughs in medicine, we need to know that they will market it fairly, even if it means that market will disappear.

    To provide a different perspective, it cost on average $314 million to 4 billion dollars to manufacture a new drug .
    A lot of drugs are expensive, however governments have schemes in place to subsidise the cost or make it free for disadvantaged people. For example in Australia we have the pharmaceutical benefit scheme.

    Now, in developing countries they may not have these in place. So when a drug that is vital for their society is developed they cannot partner with these pharmaceutical companies to make it affordable for their people.

    So it may take $40 to manufacture but what about the cost spent on developing it?
    It's sad but we live in a capitalist society.
