1855 United States Tycoon

"God! Mr. MacDonald actually came up with a new set of standards in such a short time?" Armand of Figaro said in surprise. On the one hand, he quickly opened the thick material in his hand and flipped it over. Compared with the detailed and trivial data in the previous experimental report, the latter content may be easier for him to understand.

"Well, it's here." Armand glanced at the catalog quickly:

I. Introduction

2. Basic principles and standards of judgment

3. Reasonable process and content that must be verified

...

But Armand didn't have time to read it carefully, because the press conference was still going on and Scrooge's speech was not over yet.

"Strictly speaking, this standard was not completed by us in such a short time. It was proposed after corresponding necessary expansion and further standardization of the original McDonald Chemical and Pharmaceutical Company own internal standard. Yes. We hope that through it, in the pharmaceutical industry, the industry that needs the most conscience-yes, the pharmaceutical industry is the industry that needs the most conscience, because it is too professional, and some problems are not experts in this area, but completely I don't understand. Even experts in this area are easy to make mistakes-so it is absolutely important to establish a system that is as standardized as possible and can help companies reduce such mistakes. From Starting today, all products of MacDonald Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals will be re-inspected in accordance with this standard to ensure their safety. I think if such a set of rules is determined before I invent heroin, Then heroin mistakes will definitely not happen; or even if other things like that happen, I can face Hippocrates’ oath, and unashamedly declare that I have “exhausted my ability and judgment” , You can have a clear conscience."

"Ah, it turned out to be like this. This makes perfect sense." Armand nodded, thinking like this.

"At the same time, I also hope that this standard can provide a reference for the United States and even other pharmaceutical companies in the world, and hope that it can promote the common progress of the entire pharmaceutical industry, so as to provide better services to patients all over the world." Scrooge continued Say.

"Ah, this idea is great." Sam whispered, "I think we should let Congress discuss this standard, make it a national law, and enforce it. Because, well, like Mr. MacDonald As mentioned, the pharmaceutical industry is the industry that needs the most conscience. However, employees in this industry do not necessarily have a conscience. Conscience capitalists like Mr. Scrooge Macdonald are rare, most of them Capitalists are vampires, especially those Jews."

"In addition to the internal control of the drug quality in the drug manufacturing company, we also thought of another problem." Scrooge continued to promote his set of things, "This is a problem related to the characteristics of the drug itself. There are many. Drugs, while using the properties of curing diseases, also have other very serious side effects. In fact, all drugs are like this. Therefore, if used improperly, the medicine that saves people can also become murderous. Poisons. The proper use of drugs, especially those with great side effects, requires considerable professional knowledge and skills. Some drugs, if they are sold directly in stores, so that all patients can buy them at will, consider It is impossible for most of the patients to have enough medical and pharmaceutical knowledge, so they may even kill the owner with this thing than to cure the own disease with these things. And now, these drugs are because of it. The special irreplaceable utility must be retained. Then I thought, why can’t we divide these drugs into categories? For example, we divide the drugs into two categories: drugs that require a doctor’s prescription, and those that are not. A doctor’s prescription is needed, and you can use it at will. I call the former prescription drugs. Generally speaking, they have more serious side effects and must be used correctly under the guidance of an experienced doctor; and I refer to the latter It is called over-the-counter medicine. It is aimed at common diseases and pays more attention to safety between efficacy and safety. It does not require much professional knowledge to use. It can be placed in pharmacies and purchased by patients themselves. In over-the-counter medicines, We divide it into two categories. One category can be sold in pharmacies, and consumers can purchase with a doctor’s prescription. The other category can only be used in hospitals under the supervision of doctors. This should be able to greatly reduce The harm caused by the wrong use of drugs."

"That's really a good suggestion! It's really Mr. MacDonald, why does his head work so well? God really loves this person." John couldn't help but slap Own's thigh vigorously. "Well, we have to report this news, and we have to promote the full implementation of this proposal in the United Kingdom. On such issues, we cannot fall behind the United States."

"This is indeed a genius idea. Well, in this way, we don't have to worry about the use of drugs that have too many side effects and are difficult to master. Well, I think heroin can be handled in this way. As a prescription drug, the patient You can only get it if you are sure that you are ill and you have a prescription from a doctor. In this way, can you avoid the problem of large-scale abuse? Mr. MacDonald is really a smart man. If he is a French People are just fine." Armand exclaimed in the same way.

"Hahaha, God, Mr. MacDonald is from United States." Sam smiled triumphantly when he heard what Armand said.

Scrooge’s speech continues: “The quality inspection and classification testing of drugs should best be carried out by independent non-profit institutions, so as to avoid the problems caused by various enterprises due to operational reasons. Errors can also make the inspection and grading of drugs more scientific and credible. On this idea, Mr. Morgan and I talked over the phone. We both agreed to put out a sum of money as an initial donation. To build such an independent institution. In addition, we believe that such an institution must also have a reliable monitor. Both Mr. Morgan and I believe that the United States Congress may be a good monitor.

According to our vision, this organization should operate like this. First of all, all its operating expenses should mainly come from the cost of the company's drug delivery and social donations. The details of the use of all his funds should be regularly announced to the public. For any drugs tested in this institution, the testing costs should be borne by the pharmaceutical companies themselves. The testing data of all prescribed items should also be completely open to the public. To facilitate the choice of consumers or professionals. And all drugs that pass the test will also have the right to use the logo of this independent drug evaluation agency on their own packaging. In addition, any manufacturer of drugs that are subject to testing should also promise to allow this organization to conduct random checks on the quality of related drugs three times a year without prior notice. The random inspection items and costs are borne by the institution itself, and the results are announced to the public. I can tell everyone that all medicines of McDonald's Chemical and Pharmaceutical Company will be tested by this institution. As for the name of this institution, Mr. Morgan and I initially designated it as a ‘standard drug test’..."

"Ah, this is also a good idea. To be honest, if those companies are allowed to test themselves, I can't trust any other pharmaceutical companies except MacDonald Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals. There is such an independent organization. , That’s much better, so you don’t have to worry about getting black heart medicine anymore." Sam whispered.

Scrooge's speech is over here, and then it's time for reporters to ask questions. This is what the reporters have been waiting for for a long time. Moreover, at today's press conference, the press release took up too much time. Now, the time has reached 11:30, so the time for reporters to ask questions is naturally quite limited. This naturally makes the reporters more eager.

According to past rules, reporters from major newspapers still get the opportunity to ask questions. The first opportunity to ask questions fell on Sam, a reporter from the New York Daily Times.

"Mr. MacDonald, I would like to know one thing. Once the institution you mentioned called'standard drug testing' is established, will you hand over'heroin' to this institution for testing? If it passes the test, your company Will it continue to produce'heroin'?" Sam asked.

"Thank you for your question. I just said that all our medicines will be sent to this institution for testing. As for heroin, because before this incident, some companies have already purchased heroin-related patents from us, and The production of this product has already begun. So we will submit heroin as a second-class prescription drug-that is, a category that must be used under the direct supervision of a doctor. If it passes the test, we will continue to produce it, because At least for now, we don’t have a better alternative for surgical anesthesia and some other uses. But in the future, you will definitely not see heroin in pharmacies. Of course, until the test results of a third-party independent agency come out, We will stop the production and sale of heroin." Scrooge replied.

"Thank you for your answer." Sam said, "I think this is a wise decision."

The second person who got the opportunity to ask questions was the Times reporter John.

"Mr. MacDonald, this is the Times reporter John. I want to know, do you think that third-party testing of drugs should become a mandatory policy? In addition, when will the institution you mentioned start operating? Woolen cloth?"

"Ah," Scrooge laughed. "Whether it will become a mandatory policy or law is not something I can decide. It depends on the will of the people. As for the time when this institution starts to operate. I think it should be. It won’t be too long. If the Congress goes well, it will be operational by the end of this year at most.”
