Indian generic drugs infringe on intellectual property rights, but why does the United States turn a blind eye?

If the Indian government was selling anything other than copycat drugs, India would definitely be punished today. However, the copycat medicine in India is for a simple reason: if we don’t copy it, our people will not be able to afford this medicine. Can we just watch them die? Even companies that make money by selling drugs follow a basic principle: the fundamental purpose of opening a factory is to save people. Pharmaceutical factories, doctors, nurses, etc. All are part of the European and American systems and must follow the principles of the medical staff. The first principle is to save lives and heal the wounded.

In Europe and the United States, doctors and nurses can accept cheap small gifts, but no one dares to accept red envelopes. For example, in the United States, doctors can perform surgeries independently. This requires at least 10 years of hard work to obtain this mission, and they must pass five hurdles and win six generals. Their legal income is very high, and it is not easy for them to become doctors. They will never accept red envelopes that violate medical ethics. Because this not only violates medical ethics, but will also result in being kicked out of the doctor's team. It is also considered accepting commercial bribery. If the circumstances are serious, you will be imprisoned. This is true even for ordinary doctors and nurses. Why can pharmaceutical companies make fake products?

So, these pharmaceutical factories are also frustrated and can only use various other means to crack down on counterfeit drugs, but they cannot impose sanctions on India because the pressure of world public opinion cannot bear it. If you impose sanctions on India and ask India to close pharmaceutical factories, the Indian media will blame these so-called genuine pharmaceutical factories the next day for thousands of Indians who have no money to take medicines.

In addition, it is impossible for truly wealthy people and countries to take fake medicines. After all, it is not as safe as genuine drugs. Therefore, the profits of European and American pharmaceutical companies can still be guaranteed, and they are still quite wealthy, far from being destroyed by Indian fake drugs.
