Playing God S2 Ep8: Money or Science? The Business of Curing.

Welcome to Playing God, Season 2, Episode 8! In this eye-opening episode, we ask a powerful question: is the pharmaceutical industry driven by pure science, or has it become just another business chasing money?

The pharmaceutical industry has a complex history. Originally founded on the principle of discovery and curing diseases, it has evolved into a global powerhouse. But as these companies grew, so did the focus on profit. This episode dives deep into that transformation, exploring the ethical dilemmas and business decisions that shape modern healthcare.

We'll discuss:
The shift from a "cure-first" mindset to a "business-first" model.
The profit motive: How the need to please shareholders impacts drug development, pricing, and research.
The debate: We'll explore if it's possible for the healthcare industry to balance scientific innovation with the pressure to make money.
Ethical questions: Do drug companies have a moral obligation to prioritize patients over profits?

Join the conversation and let us know what you think. Is it a matter of money or science?
