I worked in the Pharmaceutical industry for a couple of years
(late 90s/early 00s), Anyway, you're _partially_ correct of
course.
Companies are not _nonprofit_. They want to make money. And they
sometimes do questionable things. [encouraging a science around
Statins, as decreasing numbers is popular, and even *telling
ppl* that it just lowers numbers outright, but still, the
prescriptions would continue, as people _like_ lower numbers.
Built around placebo.
So there is some truth.
HOWEVER - and here is where you're wrong: Vaccinations *do*
help. The industry for vaccinations is of a different nature
than the "HEY LET'S TRY TO LIVE FOREVER" drugs.
Vaccines are a matter of _public health_ and not private health.
That changes it. There's also not much profit in vaccines that
become mandatory. They _have_ to be cheap, which is why so few
big pharma bother with making them.
