Medical science and commerce grow hand in hand . Many believe the field of medicine has ceased to be a pure science long ago . Both are mutually inclusive . We have no other option ! If there is no commercial interest . . .Who will fund cardiology research ? Then . . . How are you going to develop a biological pacemaker or the eagerly awaited total artificial heart ?
Without involvement of the commercial forces , no break through is possible . If you take medical science , majority of growth has occurred by the motivational force of medical industry . Here is an exclusive website for sub specialty called cardiopulmonary business .
But do we have the medical research in safe hands ?
Why a hastily developed cardiac device enter the human domain and recalled within 2 years fearing grave Injury ?
Why a drug known to cause serious side effect was purposefully blinded with a hidden agenda till the drug earns a billion or two ?
What is in store for future generations ?
When the profession is at the mercy of forces other than patient care as a primary aim there is every reason for it go awry and become a dangerous health hazard . If any medical professional who does not see this , as an important issue for man kind , requires a rebooting for reality !
Public should realise , what they often get in the name of science is a huge human body trial and victims of biological shopping . It has wide-ranging Implication . It is ironical , we are in a piquant situation , where our bio-system has to fight not only against the diseases but also the misplaced scientific methodology and fraudulent practices.
