Can we make enough of it to treat everyone with the problem at a reasonable cost? Far from it.
Will the shelf-life of the medicine be worth the cost for mass production?
It takes a lot of power to keep something really cold if that's needed.
ya
and we are talking about a growing population
i wonder if the drug Shkreli's company gouged the price on can be excused by cost of production for something almost nobody is buying

goes back to the concept of suffering being necessary in general.
Balance over blind good
