As we just saw with the COVID-19 vaccines, you may develop game changing drug, almost skip the testing phase and profit hugely off it, if the demand is high enough.

The mRNA vaccines were tested on 10ks of people before they were released to the general public. While the timelines were sped up and access to larger bodies of test subjects, the testing phase was not skipped by any stretch

So we're just going to forget that the labs faked test results and lied? Before you downvote as fake news, a Democratic AG sued over it.

Looks like you're talking about this, which is about a shady company taking COVID test results, not faked vaccine testing.

Anecdotally, from two (albeit leading) microbiologists, an additional risk if the cultural one. The thinking being, if you work on a semi-marginal anti microbial, itβs less important, but nobody will protest your margins. Versus if you develop something game changing, chances are the powers that be will take it from you.
