Doesn’t the government usually fund drug research and development?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago

In the U.S., private companies spend about 5x on drug development than the government. The numbers are probably fuzzier than that though because I don't think the government spending numbers capture things like grants to graduate students working on drug research.
