Le conseguenze dell’innovazione farmaceutica per la società

Per la maggior parte degli ultimi cinquant’anni la ricerca farmaceutica si è basata su un patto sociale chiaro. I nuovi medicinali allungavano la vita, riducevano i ricoveri in ospedale e, in alcuni casi, rappresentavano terapie efficaci. In cambio, la società accettava di far fronte al costante aumento della spesa sanitaria. Il patto ha retto fino a quando la ricerca ha dato risultati visibilmente migliori. Ora viene rimesso in discussione.
