The article also mentioned nothing about the drug being sold on the website either. I presume they must have had to go to a doctor to get a prescription which they would then take to a pharmacy to get the drug... so going to the doctor and saying "I took this questionnaire and it said I have X. I need drug Y" means there are problems elsewhere in the system.


I agree, but it's perfectly valid to hold it against a company to exploit those problems in the system for profit, if this goes at a cost of human life.

(The problem likely being that doctors don't want to argue with their patients too much)
