The world without (reductionist) medicines will be a boon to mankind. Take a look at the example of cholesterol-reducing drugs
Prof Dr Bm Hegde
The latest Reader’s Digest has an article with the above-mentioned title where the author seems to be frightened of a future world without medicines, as drug companies will no longer be interested to make good drugs if the rules allow medicines to be manufactured and sold with generic names. Generic drugs remove the present day power of the pharma lobby to sell the same medicines with their patent for anywhere between 1,000-5,000 times the cost! I pity the author, Catherine Kane; obviously, she is a non-medical person and looks like an agent of the pharmaceutical corporate monstrosity.
