 Medical–industrial complex    | |
|---|---|
The medical–industrial complex is a network of interactions between pharmaceutical corporations, government health care bureaucracies, intergovernmental organizations, and medical conglomerates. Its reach also includes paid academics, "philanthropic" foundations, politicians, and corporate media. The term is a product of the military–industrial complex and builds from the basis of that concept, [1] and has significant overlaps, as became clearer after Covid.
