Pharmaceutical Sales will now die

I beg to differ. The only ones who can save us from coronavirus are the evil greedy pharmaceutical companies! Treatments will be available soon and a vaccine next year. Pharmaceutical companies have an opportunity to be heroes and if all goes well, we will be welcome back with open arms into Universities, Government Accounts etc. This could be the return of the golden age...
i agree - it is our opportunity to be hero’s with treatments and vaccines.
 












Are you looking for a way to survive during these crazy times. Here's a thought. Be yourself. Stay true to your values, your passion and your ambitions! Don't curl up in a corner and hope this goes away on it's own! Be a leader, communicate and continue to drive forward!
 


















Most of us in our district are reaching out to our doctors via eMails, phone calls, personal mail, and eDetailing!! The response from my customers has been uplifting and gratifying. Instead of sitting around, go for the business in unique and impactful ways!! I will SUCCEED!

What an inspirational message! You should be a politician because you can sling the BS with the best of them.
 






Doctors offices will close. Reps will not be allowed period. Useless anyway. The company will start layoffs in June. If your over 50, you better starting looking into a plan B. If you won’t have health ins, your screwed, especially the S P folks. I’m in headquarters. This is true and long overdue. All sales forces except possibly Oncology are on the table. PC for sure, and anesthesia, and infectious disease.
Start planning.

We’ve been on life support for 20 years.

Hold that thought. Pharma will do what it always has done, slap exorbitant prices on treatments and vaccines for the US and give it away to Europe, Asia, etc.,
Pharma will always be in the crosshairs until they stop subsidizing the world at the expense of the US. Our lobbyists won’t be able to save us.
Once Medicare gets the nod to negotiate drug prices, it’s over for the world.

Socialized, government-run medicine will ration health care and the entire world will suffer.

Hahahahaha! Another dime store preacher with the same, tired, old pile of bull.

I’m sure they appreciated your lunch.

Shut the fuck up, and stop posting this same bullshit on various company threads.

I don’t disagree with your comment that Pharma will do what it has always done. That’s a given. And you are spot on about Medicare negotiating drug prices. However, this may be the time to point out how American drugs are sold to countries with socialized medicine. Those countries know what you and I know - they are only buying our excess capacity. If an American drug company could sell everything they make in America, believe me, Italy would get none of that drug. I know this from personal experience working with a VP of Regulatory Affairs. We were at a meeting in Madrid where he was negotiating pricing for Italy, Israel and Japan. He told me that demand for our one and only drug was down in the US. He needed to sell the extra 100 million infusion units to these countries; otherwise we would have to throw those units away. I need to mention that this drug had an expiration date less than one year. No way these countries would pay US prices for the drug. We were trying to cover our fixed costs only. Just good business sense. Same thing happened in Canada a few years later.

NAE here, I've been sheltering in place for 20 years, never leave my home. What's been going on?

Reaching out has to be one of the most painful phrases in pharma land

The entire world? Or your corporate welfare world?
 






Ironic since Oncology are the most ridiculously overpaid, and sell a drug that sells itself...

Merck will be a company of managers with no one left to manage...

America! What a country!
With no reps there are no managers. And the number of people in marketing would be dwindled dramatically. It’s gonna be interesting to see what the future holds. Until there is a vaccine it is going to be very different and more difficult for sure
