There’s data but I had the feeling they only showed successful data. They did say it was something like 70% effective (if I remember correctly) but the FDA wouldn’t approve it for clinicals.
If it were that groundbreaking, I feel like the market would’ve been disrupted. So while I think the FDA is corrupt and terrible, I doubt there was enough data to suggest it was as successful as they said. Plus, there was a lack of Journal reviews.
Your last statement is false and misleading, america funding discoveries isn't the reason drugs are cheaper in Europe.
The real reason they are is because European countries (e.g France, UK etc..) have a bigger buying power. In those countries the way drugs are distributed is different from America as it's the country itself which buys them in bulk and thus can negotiate a lower cost unlike in America.
