Nowadays, many medical research projects are carried out by private companies. In your opinion, do you think that the research should be carried out by the individual, private companies or by the government?

Recently, most of the research and development in the medical field

this

should be discouraged as there is increased risk of unethical practices with private companies.

Instead

, government should take a leading role in researching key issues in medicine. Private enterprises have always been in the limelight for all the wrong

As a result

, rare diseases and infectious disease which mainly affects the poor is under researched area in medical science.

For instance

, private projects spent millions of dollars on treatment of acne rather than on

Moreover

, serious side effects are not disclosed resulting in serious
