Thirty years ago, the CEO of Merck, a leading drug company, made a startling confession - he longed for his company to be like the maker of Wrigley's chewing gum, selling drugs to healthy people as well as the sick. This dream has since become a reality, with the industry expanding its market by widening the boundaries of illness and lowering the threshold for treatments. The result? Millions of new patients and billions in profits, threatening to bankrupt national health systems around the world. As the industry continues to evolve, it's moving ever closer to selling drugs to everyone, medicalizing more and more aspects of life.
Тридцать лет назад генеральный директор Merck, ведущей фармацевтической компании, сделал поразительное признание - он жаждал, чтобы его компания была похожа на производителя жевательной резинки Wrigley, продавая лекарства здоровым людям, а также больным. С тех пор эта мечта стала реальностью: отрасль расширяет свой рынок, расширяя границы болезней и снижая порог для лечения. Результат? Миллионы новых пациентов и миллиарды прибыли, угрожая обанкротить национальные системы здравоохранения по всему миру. По мере того, как индустрия продолжает развиваться, она становится все ближе к продаже лекарств всем, медикализируя все больше и больше аспектов жизни.
Il y a trente ans, le PDG de Merck, une grande entreprise pharmaceutique, a fait une reconnaissance frappante - il voulait que sa société ressemble au fabricant de chewing-gum Wrigley, vendant des médicaments à des personnes en bonne santé ainsi qu'à des malades. Depuis, ce rêve est devenu réalité : l'industrie étend son marché en élargissant les frontières de la maladie et en abaissant le seuil de traitement. résultat ? Des millions de nouveaux patients et des milliards de profits, menaçant de faire faillite les systèmes de santé nationaux dans le monde. À mesure que l'industrie continue de se développer, elle se rapproche de plus en plus de la vente de médicaments à tous, médicalisant de plus en plus les aspects de la vie.
treinta , el CEO de Merck, la principal empresa farmacéutica, hizo un sorprendente reconocimiento: anhelaba que su empresa fuera como el fabricante de chicles Wrigley, vendiendo medicamentos a personas sanas y también a enfermos. Desde entonces, este sueño se ha hecho realidad: la industria está expandiendo su mercado, ampliando los límites de las enfermedades y reduciendo el umbral para el tratamiento. resultado? Millones de nuevos pacientes y miles de millones de personas han llegado amenazando con la quiebra de los sistemas nacionales de salud de todo el mundo. A medida que la industria sigue evolucionando, cada vez está más cerca de vender medicamentos a todos, medicalizando cada vez más aspectos de la vida.
Há trinta anos, o CEO da Merck, uma empresa farmacêutica líder, fez uma admissão surpreendente - ele estava ansioso para que sua empresa se parecesse com a fabricante de chicletes Wrigley, vendendo medicamentos para pessoas saudáveis e doentes. Desde então, este sonho tornou-se realidade, com a indústria expandindo seu mercado, ampliando os limites das doenças e reduzindo o limite de tratamento. O resultado? Milhões de novos pacientes e milhares de milhões de dólares, ameaçando falir os sistemas de saúde nacionais em todo o mundo. À medida que a indústria continua a crescer, está cada vez mais perto de vender medicamentos a todos, medicalizando mais e mais aspectos da vida.
Trent'anni fa, l'amministratore delegato della Merck, la principale azienda farmaceutica, fece una notevole ammissione: voleva che la sua azienda somigliasse al produttore di gomma da masticare Wrigley, vendendo medicinali a persone sane e malate. Da allora, questo sogno è diventato realtà: il settore sta espandendo il proprio mercato, allargando i confini delle malattie e abbassando la soglia di trattamento. Il risultato? Milioni di nuovi pazienti e miliardi di profitti minacciano di far fallire i sistemi sanitari nazionali in tutto il mondo. Mentre l'industria continua a crescere, diventa sempre più vicina alla vendita di farmaci a tutti, medicalizzando sempre di più gli aspetti della vita.
Vor dreißig Jahren legte der CEO von Merck, einem führenden Pharmaunternehmen, ein erstaunliches Geständnis ab - er sehnte sich danach, dass sein Unternehmen wie der Kaugummihersteller Wrigley ist und Medikamente sowohl an gesunde Menschen als auch an Kranke verkauft. Seitdem ist dieser Traum Wirklichkeit geworden: Die Industrie erweitert ihren Markt, indem sie die Grenzen von Krankheiten erweitert und die Schwelle für Behandlungen senkt. Das Ergebnis? Millionen neuer Patienten und Milliardengewinne drohen die nationalen Gesundheitssysteme weltweit in den Bankrott zu treiben. Während sich die Branche weiter entwickelt, kommt sie dem Verkauf von Medikamenten an alle näher und mediziert immer mehr Aspekte des bens.
Trzydzieści lat temu dyrektor generalny Merck, wiodącej firmy farmaceutycznej, dokonał zaskakującego przyjęcia - tęsknił za tym, by jego firma była jak wytwórca gumy do żucia Wrigley, sprzedając leki zdrowym ludziom, a także chorym. Od tego czasu marzenie to stało się rzeczywistością: przemysł rozszerza swój rynek, poszerza granice chorób i obniża próg leczenia. Wynik? Miliony nowych pacjentów i miliardy zysków, grożąc bankructwem krajowych systemów opieki zdrowotnej na całym świecie. W miarę rozwoju branży coraz bliżej jest sprzedaży leków każdemu, medycynując coraz więcej aspektów życia.

Otuz yıl önce, önde gelen bir ilaç şirketi olan Merck'in CEO'su şaşırtıcı bir itirafta bulundu - şirketinin sakız üreticisi Wrigley gibi olmasını, sağlıklı insanlara ve hastalara ilaç satmasını istiyordu. O zamandan beri, bu rüya bir gerçeklik haline geldi: Endüstri pazarını genişletiyor, hastalıkların sınırlarını genişletiyor ve tedavi eşiğini düşürüyor. Sonuç mu? Milyonlarca yeni hasta ve milyarlarca kar, dünyadaki ulusal sağlık sistemlerini iflas ettirmekle tehdit ediyor. Endüstri gelişmeye devam ettikçe, herkese ilaç satmaya, yaşamın daha fazla yönünü tıbbileştirmeye yaklaşıyor.
قبل ثلاثين عامًا، قدم الرئيس التنفيذي لشركة Merck، وهي شركة أدوية رائدة، اعترافًا مذهلاً - كان يتوق إلى أن تكون شركته مثل صانع العلكة Wrigley، حيث يبيع الأدوية للأشخاص الأصحاء وكذلك المرضى. منذ ذلك الحين، أصبح هذا الحلم حقيقة واقعة: تعمل الصناعة على توسيع سوقها، وتوسيع حدود الأمراض وخفض عتبة العلاج. النتيجة ؟ ملايين المرضى الجدد والمليارات من الأرباح، مما يهدد بإفلاس الأنظمة الصحية الوطنية في جميع أنحاء العالم. مع استمرار الصناعة في التطور، فإنها تقترب من بيع الأدوية للجميع، وتضفي المزيد والمزيد من جوانب الحياة.
三十前,領先的制藥公司默克(Merck)的首席執行官做出了驚人的認可-他渴望自己的公司看起來像口香糖制造商Wrigley,向健康的人和病人出售藥物。從那時起,這個夢想就變成了現實:該行業通過擴大疾病界限和降低治療門檻來擴大市場。結果是什麼?數以百萬計的新患者和數十億美元的利潤威脅到全球國家衛生系統的破產。隨著行業的不斷發展,它越來越接近向所有人銷售藥物,使生活中的更多方面變得醫學化。
