On the other hand, more than a third of the world&#8217;s population has no access to the medicine they need because they are not developed, due to a lack of sufficient profits for the industry or because high prices make these drugs unaffordable for patients and health systems.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1472721945648{border-bottom-width: 20px !important;padding-top: 50px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;
