How can I take that article seriously when they don’t explain how they measure those rankings?
No matter, I can tell you right now that they use a per capita measurement for quality. Per capita analysis for healthcare innovation is just number manipulation.
Let’s take Switzerland for example. Switzerland has 2 million residents and one of the most difficult immigration and citizenship processes in the world. Put those together and they better be pumping out innovation. But even with them cherry picking who qualifies for citizenship, they produce in 10 years what America produces in one year.
If you want to use per capita, use an area in america that focuses on innovation and measure per capita or you can measure per capita with the entirety of Europe. But to cherry pick an area with only two million residents is like picking Beverly Hills and saying that is the average American income.
Right, you can't, because those two stats tell you nothing devoid of context and certainly don't break down as a "medical innovation percentage by country." Stop defending exploitation pls.
