The experts are starting to catch up on what Weatherman has been saying.

“On a steamy summer day inside the lecture auditorium of the storied National Institutes of Health headquarters, Dr. Michael Bracken delivered a stark message to an audience that dedicated its life, and owed its living, to medical research.

As much as 87.5% of biomedical research is wasted or inefficient, the respected Yale University epidemiologist declared in a sobering assessment for a federal research agency that spends about $40 billion a year on medical studies.

He backed his staggering statistic with these additional stats: 50 out of every 100 medical studies fail to produce published findings, and half of those that do publish have serious design flaws. And those that aren’t flawed and manage to publish are often needlessly redundant.“

There's a great many flaws in the pharmaceutical industry. A lot of that waste is from the necessity to slowly develop drugs. Haste in a science such as chemistry is a recipe for disaster with worse consequences than the waste we already have. Other problems outside of the science itself are prime factors in the reason many experiments don't make it past the halfway point.

For all the noble merits that being a scientist can possess, there are also an equal number of setbacks and dangers.

What coronavirus drugs weren't tested? What failed? You should have the answers since this is what you have been saying.
