And they made $18 billion last year.
Yeah, well, their R&D budget for this medicine cost something crazy like $3.5 trillion dollars, so it makes sense that they have to charge 200x the cost to make it.
No, it doesn't.
Yes it does
Source on that?
He pulled it from his ass. Everyone fed the troll.
I’m sitting on it.
Your seat is the source? I think we want something more like a hyperlink to data on the subject.
I’d try to make a hyperlink out of my ass, but that link is purple. Wait
I am willing to bet they took government money to fund this. So I don't really accept the argument that they need to price it that much to make profits. How much more profits is the only thin remaining to determine and I don't have a lot of sympathy for sociopaths who claim they need so much.
Wow, that would make the company bankrupt now. They owe HOW much?!?! Why haven't they alone tanked the economy? Geez.
That’s what I’m saying! How is it they are able to stay afloat???
Because it didn't cost them 3.5 trillion to make it.
It's a peptide lol. A bond of amino acids. That's why Chinese suppliers sell it for $5-10/vial in bulk and still make a shitload of money.
Much wow, big pharma did drug AI a little sooner than the rest of them.
Id development of these drugs costs as much as our GDP, they're doing things seriously fucking wrong.
Did you just sarcasm all over the place?
Maaaayyyyybeeee 😉
