Drug companies report their biggest concern with the incoming Trump administration is the fear that the government will try to ban direct-to-consumer drug ads.
This is something I have been praying for for a long time! I am soooo sick of the drug ads! Please, Mr. Kennedy suggest drug ads be removed from the public view! People should not be subjected to constant drug ads that we are not trained to prescribe.
If drug advertisements are banned from US and NZ television - the losers will be:
The pharmaceutical industry - loss of sales
Executive staff of big pharma - loss of bonuses
Politicians - loss of payments for lobbying and electoral campaigns
Medicos - who rely on bonuses for issuing drug prescriptions and vaccinations
Advertising and marketing agencies - campaigns and marketing will diminish
Media television stations - loss of advertising revenue (but expect the internet to be saturated)
Scientific and medical journals - big pharma can't afford the "subsidies"
University "research" grants - big pharmaceutical can't afford it
Continuing "education" programs (CEP) for medical license renewal will no longer be subsidised
Airlines and resort hotels - there will be a reduction in subsidised conferences for medicos
The legal profession - who have "enabled" big pharma to flourish
I'm certain there will be more complainants however I see that the total losses amount to a return of common sense, ethics and efficiency in the entire health industry.
It’s gross to repetitively hear the list of side effects that may happen if you consume the meds attempting to be sold on commercials. Infuriating really. The people who buy those drugs are preyed upon by Pharma.
I mean, if tobacco and cannabis, medicinal plants from mother earth, can't be advertised, there is no reason synthetic pharmaceuticals should be treated differently. But if they're going to ban all drug ads, sugar-laden foods and drinks marketed to kids should also have to be banned.
They never used to allow Pharma ads, then I don’t know if it was in the 80s? But that’s when they took control of Media as well. The reason why the narrative was what they wanted told, all the “Covid lies”we heard, got spread everywhere because they own All the MAIN STREAM media. Hence why No one watches it. So I Totally agree, get Pharma ads OUT! Pharma needs to stop controlling our media with their money.

And they should! We are the only country besides New Zealand that allows it. Conflicts of interest should be treated as the crimes that they are

Common sense says, no more!!
Probably better to throw out the T.V. There is enough propaganda without the ads anyway.
