Drug company refuses to help save 7 year old boy

[PaintMyHouse]

What's curious is the left insisting that the reason the kid isn't getting the drug is an inability to pay. The real reason is that the drug hasn't been approved and it's illegal to let the child take it.

They've made exceptions before, according to the article.

Yeah but the truth is kryptonite to a hypocritical, lying liberal.

But yet the entire thread is built on the premise that he can't afford the drugs.



So what is it now? That they are eeevviil corporations who want to kill children?



Let me go get my river waders for this thread.

Chimerex CEO Kenneth Moch told Fox News that the company made the decision two years ago to stop the compassionate use program, saying they 'cannot afford it' anymore.


'As we progressed to larger and more complex safety trials, we made the decision two years ago to stop the program and focus resources on earning FDA approval,' Moch said.


Moch says that saying yes to Josh would mean saying yes to many more patients, draining the company's resources and delaying the time it will take for the drug to progress through the formal studies required before it can be given FDA approval and help many more future patients.


However, the company received $72 million in federal funding to develop Brincidofovir

So ******* what. It's not your business how they use their products. For instance, if i passed you on the street and you spontaneously burst into flames, i would still with hold my urine for the men's room.

This is an interesting problem.

If they give him the meds, others will demand it for free, since the kid got it for free.

this will delay the drugs advancement through the final fda trials.

This delay will cause people, who aren't cute kids, to die waiting for the drug to get approval


save one and let 2 die.

The entire argument here is based exclusively on appeal to emotion. it's a real yawner.

 

[ScienceRocks]

For-Profit Corporations exist to do just two things, outlive their founders and maximize shareholder value. That's it. They are, by law, amoral legal entities. If you think of them as Cost Externalizing Sociopaths, you understand them correctly.

With the right regulations they add great value to our society.

Innovation
massive employment
and added gdp

So regulate them. Every economy in the world does. Adam Smith didn't even want them to exist, for good reason.

Yes, we need to regulate them and tax them fairly. Adam smith lived in a time when he didn't have a clue about the advantages of them. The increase in gdp = increase in living standards across the board and innovation is a huge plus! They're little engines of economic growth that in many ways work better then the government. Not to say that government doesn't do a good job in many areas, but we can please stay out of the 18th ******* century?

The entire argument of both extremes kind of fails to consider the past 150 years.

vast federal regulations have delayed this drug, but it's the companies fault for not wanting to give it away.
