A doctor who travels through two eras

Chapter 783 Orders Flying in Like Snowflakes

Professor Anthony saw that the deans in the audience were all excited, so he continued to persuade them:

“And to ensure our credibility, we can openly tell patients that if tuberculosis is not cured after a six-month course of treatment, we can provide free anti-tuberculosis drugs.

Wouldn't this give tuberculosis patients great confidence? Wouldn't those hesitant patients desperately try to raise money for treatment when they hear the guarantee of cure or free treatment? "

At this time, a dean in the audience asked in confusion:

"Anthony, isn't this too risky? Are you so sure that you can cure tuberculosis in six months?
You also said that the cost of medicine alone for one course of treatment is $10,000. If tuberculosis cannot be cured for a long time, we will definitely not be able to afford it.”

Other directors of the hospitals were also whispering to each other that because the diseases could not be cured, some of the excess cases would be treated for free, which had never happened before in other countries.

Private hospitals in particular are very strict about costs and profits. Capitalists will never provide free treatment to patients, not even in their dreams. They would rather dump the drugs into the Pacific Ocean.

Professor Anthony laughed and said:
"Then let me tell you, this statement is actually beneficial to us, do you believe it?

Because when we treat a tuberculosis patient, we charge based on a six-month course of treatment.

But I want to tell you that according to our clinical trial data, at least 70% of patients can turn negative and recover completely after 4 months of treatment.

So, by this calculation, have we saved two months of medical expenses? Think about how much more money we can earn?

As for the refractory pulmonary tuberculosis that has not been successfully treated within 6 months, which accounts for about 6% of the total patients, it actually does not cost much to continue supplying drugs to these few patients.

Maybe the treatment course will be longer, and the patient can be completely cured after 8 or 12 months. Then we can stop supplying the medicine, right?

In addition, everyone should not forget that the mortality rate of severe pulmonary tuberculosis is very high. These 6% of patients will die within a short period of time, and then the treatment will be automatically terminated, and we will not have to continue to supply drugs. "

Oh~~~
The more than 1,000 deans at the scene all understood that this was actually a gamble on a low-probability event.

If you use ethylpyridamole tablets, you can usually be cured within 6 months, or even less than 6 months. As for severe tuberculosis that lasts for more than 6 months, you actually won't live that long.

The deans and chairmen did some calculations and realized that this business could be done.

The key point is that the gimmick of providing free medicine if the disease cannot be cured within 6 months is too good and too attractive. It is completely a hype point.

Professor Anthony sat on the stage, looking at the group of capitalist dogs below with shining eyes, and he knew that his words had worked.

But in order to give these capitalists a sense of urgency, he has to continue to deceive:
"In addition, I want to tell you that the United States is not the only country in the world that is promoting ibiricum tablets. Europe, Asia, Africa, and even Australia have already started promoting them.

If we do not seize the time to promote and apply this technology in clinical practice in the Americas, all tuberculosis patients in the Americas will have to go to Europe and Asia for treatment.

So think about it, don’t you feel like you’re going to miss out on hundreds of millions?

So it is best for us in America to take the initiative before all other countries, so that we can attract their patients for treatment and make a fortune. "

At this time, a dean raised his concerns:
"Anthony, we trust you and your Massachusetts General Hospital, but we still have a concern. After all, a course of treatment with iboperidol tablets costs $10,000, which is a huge cost.

I said, what if the effect of the pyridoxine tablets is not as magical as you advertise? After all, the data we have is that you have only tested it in the Hong Kong Wales Hospital and the China Infectious Disease Hospital.

The two hospitals combined have tens of thousands of specimens, but it’s still not enough.”

Professor Anthony smiled confidently and patted his chest like Lin Sanqi did:

"Don't worry, I can assure everyone here that the clinical cure rate of Epyridamole Tablets is over 90%. If it is lower than this figure, you can ask me to return the product. I will not let you bear any risk or loss."

The discussion started again, which dispelled everyone's last concerns.

A special medicine that can make so much money, and if it doesn't work, you can get a full refund, so what are you waiting for? You'd be a fool not to take it now.

At this time, Professor Anthony glanced over and made eye contact with several of the attendants at the scene.

Dean Mike of Johns Hopkins Hospital was the first to stand up and shouted, "Anthony, you are the best infectious disease expert in the world. There will be no problem with the drug you invented. We at Johns Hopkins Hospital are willing to start tuberculosis treatment immediately. We first need 2 doses of iboperidol tablets."

Another shill, Nebraska Medical Center President Langone, also stood up:

"If you want to make money, you can't do it without taking any risks. I am willing to believe in the credibility of Professor Anthony and Massachusetts General Hospital. Our Nebraska Medical Center also needs 2 doses of anti-tuberculosis drugs and will start tuberculosis treatment immediately.

But Anthony, you can't cheat us. If I find that your pyridoxine tablets are ineffective, I will not only refund the full amount, but also ask your team to pay a large amount of compensation. You have to be mentally prepared for this."

Professor Anthony laughed and said:
"I think I have the integrity to assure you all once again that if it doesn't work, you can get a refund. It's that simple. But if you all make a lot of money, when we go to your hospital, you have to throw us a celebration party."

Where someone takes the lead, others will follow.

So each hospital started reporting the numbers, and assistant Austin wrote them down one by one. After the meeting, both parties signed a formal contract.

After the 20th hospital reported, Austin nodded to Professor Anthony, which was also the secret signal agreed upon by both parties in advance.

Professor Anthony poured cold water on the crowd that had already reached the climax of the bidding:
"Stop, stop, stop. Sorry, my assistant just told me that we only have 50 Epyridamole tablets in total. We at Massachusetts General Hospital need to keep 5 of them, so we can only supply 45 to everyone."

"Fuck you~~~"

"Give it to us, give us the hospital first!"

"Get lost! American hospitals should be given preferential treatment!"

There was a sudden burst of shouting and cursing at the scene.

People are all humble. If you beg them to buy something, they may just ignore you.

However, if you artificially create a tension between supply and demand, giving people the impression that demand exceeds supply, the other party will become anxious and beg you to sell.

Professor Anthony also wanted to make a lot of money right away, but he knew that before a new drug could be launched on the market, he must first use "hunger marketing" to whet everyone's appetite.

With the help of Anthony's team's money and the fact that Massachusetts General Hospital had a drug that could completely cure tuberculosis, it quickly caused a sensation across the United States and then around the world.

All media and specialists around the world were discussing the news that tuberculosis had been truly conquered.

Of course, some news reports were certain that humanity's first infectious disease had been cured, but many media and doctors expressed doubts, so all major newspapers and radio stations were discussing the authenticity of the news.

This is the effect Anthony wants. Whether you believe it or not, at least your traffic has increased and more people have seen the news.

So in the next few days, the appointments for the Tuberculosis Department of Massachusetts General Hospital were scheduled for two months later. Americans are really not afraid of spending money. Even the poor people would take out loans to get treatment. Saving their lives is the first priority.

When other hospitals saw what was happening in the United States and how much money Massachusetts General Hospital was making, they all rushed in.

This scene also appeared in the United States, France, Germany, Australia, Arabia and other countries.

Ethiopyrad tablets are very popular. They are extremely popular.

The manufacturer of ethoxypyridamole tablets, Baoan Pharmaceutical Factory, also received a large number of orders.

Lin Sanqi looked at the order brought by Factory Director Yuan Mingjie, and the corners of his mouth curled up. At the same time, he felt relieved. He had been busy for so many years and invested so much energy, and finally he saw the return on his money.

Director Yuan said anxiously:

"Commissioner Lin, the number of orders from Witt Pharmaceuticals and Anthony Pharmaceuticals has reached 1000 million. Our current production capacity is completely unable to produce enough. What should we do?"

Lin Sanqi didn't care. This was the "hunger marketing" he and the two white professors developed. Now that it was effective, there was no rush.

"Old Yuan, what are you afraid of? Just produce according to schedule, but try not to work overtime. After all, even if people can work three shifts, the machines will not be able to cope. Our machines are second-hand, and repair and maintenance are a big hassle."
