Q: What role do patents play in pharmaceutical markets?
Did You Know?
False. In both medicine and research, causing some harm is sometimes unavoidable to achieve a greater good (e.g., the pain of a surgery to cure disease, or the minor discomfort of a blood draw to gain knowledge). The principle is prima facie; it requires that harms are minimized and justified by the benefits.
