RE:RE:Pfizer Acquires Biohaven for $11.6BTo summerize, Dr. Wallace would say, "Good science takes time"
when it comes to the actual research and trials, speed cannot be the driving priority....and it has to be safe, for as many people as possible. No matter what it’s for, good science takes time https://herald-review.com/opinion/columnists/john-l-wallace-good-science-takes-time/article_5490aa73-8c29-564e-88d2-c4f5646af7fa.html

There are many reasons why Big Pharma needs to really work on their future drug portfolios - from governments looking to get pricing down - to some Big Pharmas who made bad calls on acquisitions (Bayer and Round-up) - to CEOs getting ousted (Biogen - AD) - to big drugs coming off patent by 2026-2030. There are many reasons why Big Pharma needs to make wise decisions.
We're just not in the running in 2022 (IMO) - but that's OK ... stars are aligning ... especially when you look at the cost of opioids going up (disposal education/stamped envelopes for disposal), Doctors not wanting to deal with opioids and better education out there about the damage from NSAIDs (specifically Aspirin right now).
It's going to get really interesting - I think.
