1896 actually, but no one did anythign with it. It was re-discovere in 1928. Basically it was discovered in '28 again, because Flemming had no prior knowledge of Duchesne's discovery.

I also LOVE the way you argue, you give parameters, I meet them, then you start changing them. Still, why is the US 37 and most European Countries above it? I want nice hard answers. Notice the study is from the WHO, and you can't even argue it's biased. You can argue it's from 2000, but if anything Healthcare in the US has gotten worse, not better, since, so that path would be just working against you.

As someone pointed out, government regulation and stuff costs companies a lot. If the government is developing these drugs then we won't need such regulations from the government at all. If something goes wrong, elect someone else in the election! Quite simple really. Also, I doubt the government wouldn't follow its own regulations, leading to much less lawsuits. Also does the government have to pay their legal fees to themselves if they DO get sued by some idiot who didn't read?

 

You’re kidding me right?

I said 100 years ago. Even by your numbers, it was first discovered 113 years ago. I gave those parameters, because more than 100 years ago was the infancy of medicine. What could be done in your garage back then, doesn’t apply to today’s discovery of medicine.

As for the validity of that list not being argued, it’s been argued extensively in this thread.

Plus, nothing about the UK’s health system implies that free markets can’t make money off of drugs.

Your premise is business and healthcare should never mix.

I am saying if you don’t mix them, millions more people die over the next 100 years then if you do.
