Abstract
Public health practitioners are often suspicious of colleagues who work with the pharmaceutical industry. But, by analogy with the legal system, public good flows from allowing commercial interests to present their case as strongly as possible within rules set by the government or National Health Service. In court, both parties work within an agreed framework, but each party presents only one side of the argument. Arguing the commercial case balances the drive for innovation against the inertia of the NHS.
公共卫生从业人员经常对与制药行业合作的同事持怀疑态度。但是,与法律体系类似,公共利益来自于允许商业利益在政府或国民健康服务(National Health Service)制定的规则范围内尽可能有力地陈述自己的观点。在法庭上,双方在一个商定的框架内工作,但每一方都只提出一方的论点。从商业角度出发,可以平衡创新的动力和NHS的惰性。
