The unbearable lightness of commitments to diseases of the poor

AstraZeneca, Britain's second largest pharmaceutical company, has closed down its research and development site in India as it has decided to stop research activities into neglected, tropical diseases. This despite the company having pledged (not particularly bindingly) to contribute financially and otherwise to the control of such diseases by 2020, along with government aid agencies, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and 13 other pharmaceutical companies. The motivation for the decision is overwhelmingly economic: AstraZeneca shares have been losing value over the past while, and neglected tropical diseases are no money makers, to the contrary: those mostly likely to need treatment for such diseases are the least likely to be able to pay for them.

The pullout of AstraZeneca will only reinforce skepticism regarding the commitments of pharmaceutical companies towards neglected diseases. To what extent are these commitments genuine and to be taken seriously? To what extent are they public relations strategies to be abandoned as soon as they cut too far into the bottom line?

The other disconcerting thing about the characters replica handbags in this show; is their accumulative baseline intelligence cartier replica levels. These people are borderline vegetables, and I don mean that in the cruel rolex datejust replica schoolyard taunt for somebody with an impairment, I mean actual vegetables one I swear is only 1 chromosome away from legally being declared swiss replica watches a turnip, and the rest are all carrots in color if nothing else, if their pulse ever drops below a certain rolex masterpiece watches level you can be certain that some chef will have them diced up and replica watches uk bulking out a ratatouille within minutes.

Testimony On How My Life was Transformed (Lexieloancompany@yahoo.com)..

I am writing this Testimony because am really grateful for what Martinez Lexie did for me and my family, when I thought there was no hope he came and make my family feel alive again by lending us loan at a very low interest rate of 2%. Well I have been searching for a loan to settle my debts for the past three months all I met scammed and took my money total 6,500usd until I finally met a God sent Lender. I never thought that there are still genuine loan lenders on the internet but to my greatest surprise i got my loan without wasting much time so if you are out there looking for a loan of any kind for business or other purposes i would advise you to email Mr Martinez via: ( Lexieloancompany@yahoo.com ) or through the Company website: http://lexieloans.bravesites.com OR text: +18168926958 and be free of internet scams. thanks… Jenny Hills CA, United State
