This is really shocking, with all the contributions India 🇮🇳 has contributed to the world 🌎 of medicine 💊, I couldn't believe I won't find at least five of indigenous indian company on this list...

USA 🇺🇸, has hijacked majority of their talent

RodgersAkpafu:

how is that related to the topic ?

smokinloud:
And some people are telling us that the West has fallen. China is taking over, Russia is taking over, North Korea is taking over etc but every statistics says otherwise.

smokinloud:

related because some haters will always downplay the West. They'll tell us China is taking over, Russia is taking over, North Korea is taking over bla bla bla.

akigbemaru:

You saw the Chinese companies only bought the intellectual property because of the export controls. They blocked certain western drugs in their country except if they acquired the rights to produce in different colors and brand names.

RodgersAkpafu:


Well
Western dominance in the sciences and social science research is not in doubt

However it will be self deceptive of anyone NOT to see that the Chinese and Russians are closing that gap in their own way, and having their own things

I almost went to a Russian Uni years ago
I was very impressed with the research work that they have been doing and how good the uni is, doing much more with the little funding they get

I Settled for a western uni eventually sha
But I respect the Russians a lot

That said
Where is Africa on the stage ?
Abi we came to the earth to do looku looku ni ?

akigbemaru:


China never had a breakthrough in medical or pharmaceutical research before they bought the intellectual rights and properties from USA, Germany and France. India does the same with USA and England. The frontier of science ceases where the whiteman imagination stops, period!

smokinloud:

The reason why Russia and China is doing shakara is that Africa is not productive. If they had competitors from Africa they would know that the West na Baba.

InfinixMine:
Investors in top pharmaceutical companies are smelling seeing their shares value appreciate

RodgersAkpafu:

how is that related to the topic ?

Makswell:
No African or Caribbean country on the list. You'll never find black people on such lists and yet, you still think the black man doesn't have a fundamental problem?

APOPTOSIS:
I can't spot "Agnes Nwanmma there" 😨..?

smokinloud:

Did you consider the historical context and colonial legacy in Africa?
Did you consider economic constraints?
Did you consider Africa's limited accessibility to technology
Did you consider brain drain as a result of people japaing to the West?.
Nothing is wrong with Africa we are just too young to compete with the rest of the world.

NikoWinaman:
I was thinking I will see orange drugs in the list because of how our brothers from that region usually sound.

kingsways:
Pharmaceutical companies should not be allowed to operate as businesses because they take advantage of people

Makswell:


Are we the only ones with these problems? Asians were also colonised, but today, South East Asian countries are almost at par with the West in terms of development. Were we the only ones who were enslaved? No! The Slavs were also enslaved en masse plus they owned no colonies, yet there is no black majority country that can be compared to even the worst Slavic majority country. When I say there's a fundamental problem with the Black man, I have a reason for saying so. It's something that we've gotta rectify or else, we'll keep on lagging behind and blaming everything on our bad experience.
