What will be Big Pharma's next move to bring revenue up again? The monkeypox certainly fizzled out to nothing.

I'm asking this because Big Pharma and certain high-profile individuals made it clear in print and televised US media both before and during Covid that we had best start getting used to these kinds of pandemics, because they would become recurring.



I can't take it seriously when you talk about Big Pharma in the singular.

It's not a conspiracy, it's pharmaceutical companies maximising value for shareholders as is the craze in corporations these last 30 odd years, any perceived alignment is likely due to being exposed to the same market forces and same dubious corporate philosophies.

I wouldn't write it off just yet - I'm sure they'd like to repeat the 2k of free PrEP a month deal.
