I
have written that India plays very dangerous game regarding IP and price
issues for pharmaceutical products. And the situation is developing really badly:
patent
for cancer drug sutent revoked by Pfizer.
It looks
like Indian state just nationalized IP for sutent. If it is so – I just admire
this extremely simple solution for very serious and complicated problem: India
has very poor population and very rich company Pfizer can afford some charity.
Why not? Another question: if this approach will be successful, what poor
country will dare to repeat this approach? And why just sutent? There are more
useful drugs on the market!
