A bad deal for the UK, as drug prices will be forced up.
Pharmaceutical companies hate the bargaining power that the NHS enjoys because of its centralized purchasing system and will be delighted to see the UK government buckle under the US attack.
The zero tariff agreement - even if the the Trump administration keeps its side of the bargain - will benefit corporations rather than patients.
A bad day for the National Health Service and for the UK as a whole. A bad day for other countries too, as the Trump administration will certainly take this as a sign that bullying works when it comes to drug pricing.🙁
