I’m not sure that’s true, NebulousRikulau. Hemorrhagic fever is a group of viral diseases including Ebola and Marburg. People with those infections might survive if one of the treatments now under study turns out to be effective, but current treatments don’t offer much chance of survival.
As for the obscenely-high-profit drugs, that’s subject to a great deal of discussion. I can;t think of any defense of Martin Shrekli and his plans to raise the prices of old drugs, but the major drug companies have at least a small defense in their claims that they have to make their profits in developed nations in order to charge affordable prices in poorer countries.
