Weakening Drug Patents Will Kill Off Medicines And Patients
Submitted by Chris Middleton on 9.1.2002
Legislation passed by the U.S. Senate on July 31 would weaken patent protection for brand-name drugs by allowing generic drugs to reach the market sooner. Supporters claim that the bill, S. 812, will reduce drug spending by $60 billion over the next 10 years.
