Live healthy and long

From Techdirt

In a study featured by Fox News:    4 big pharma companies, JJ Novartis, Bayer, Pfizer with revenues of over $200 billion among them, are not involved in research to find cure for Ebola.

Why?

The article at Techdirt says that there is not enough profit to be made, or that selling drugs to poor people of Africa is not attractive business for these pharma.  Only small gentech companies are most likely to be involved in the Ebola virus drug research
