On World Markets, Tatenda Belle spoke with Dr. Stella Immanuel, a Cameroonian-American physician, about how Big Pharma profits from keeping people sicker rather than offering cures. Dr. Immanuel argued that pharmaceutical companies prioritize long-term profits over patient health by focusing on managing symptoms instead of curing diseases. She criticized the healthcare system for perpetuating this cycle, with doctors often prescribing medications that create dependency, instead of exploring alternative or preventative treatments.
Dr. Immanuel also pointed out that Big Pharma has a financial incentive to avoid curing diseases, as it would disrupt their profitable model of ongoing treatments. She discussed the influence of pharmaceutical companies on medical policies and the disincentives for curing chronic conditions. Lastly, Dr. Immanuel advocated for alternative medicine and urged patients to take control of their health and explore treatments beyond traditional pharmaceuticals.
Dr. Immanuel’s conversation with Tatenda Belle highlighted some of the critical issues surrounding Big Pharma and its profit driven motives. While not everyone may agree with her stance, her views challenge the prevailing narrative of the healthcare industry and encourage a broader discussion about the balance between profit and patient care.
