Editor's Notes
- Another global public good is the result of research, when shared. But there is also a “market failure” to direct R&D to solve the biggest health problems. We therefore have what is called the 10/90 gap. Of the $70 billion spent every year on medical research, less than 10% is devoted to the diseases that cause 90% of global illness and death.
- Only 16 of the 1396 drugs registered by the FDA in the last 25 years were for the problems that disproportionately affect the developing world. Markets fail to develop or deliver products to those who have little disposable income. If we wait for markets to solve these problems we’ll be waiting for eons that would make Peter Ward’s astrobiological processes look instantaneous. Governments must manage the incentives to encourage more innovation to address the diseases of the poor.
- Pays for itself in 3 to 5 years (IOM)
- Some of us may be motivated to act by fear for our health security; others by the recognition that our own economic future depends on having healthy and productive societies to trade with; still others are motivated by by moral outrage at the inequities. The reason for action doesn’t matter. But the potential for impact is enormous. Think globally, act globally, and deliver results!
