GS3- IPR issues- Intellectual property
β Gs-4 : Ethics- morals- Vaccine equity - A case study
πA very shocking fact- as of Jan 2021- the poorest country in the world got just 25 doses of vaccine- JUST 25! vs 39 million doses in rich countries- is it ethical?
πShould we blame the pharma companies for making money then?
π΄ Not really ; what is the incentive then for spending so much?
β οΈFor examples SARS broke out in 2002- pharma companies spent billions on understanding it- same is the case with EBOLA- they didn't have any returns back then but after that knowledge helped in creating this covid vaccine- What about the money spent ? How do we expect the companies to be so generous?
πDoes it mean we have to give them a free hand let them rob the poor countries or deny them a vaccine?- Is this how it should work?
β What then, is the way ahead?- To solve this problem - the entire world should pool money for research- Interesting idea?- Click here to read more about it
β οΈMust read for the interview candidates.

β GS -4 : Ethics- what do you mean by integrity? Is it different from honesty?
Let me try to explain the difference here.
There is a choice between two bowlers- say A and B.
A is not a seasoned bowler but if we take a look at his record- he has a best bowling figure of 6 wkts for 5 runs in a match. He was honest in his intention that day.
B is another bowler- he doesn't have the same record of A but is proven to be a match winner- especially in the death overs.
Whom do you pick? A or B?
B seems like a rational choice. - it is because he is consistent.
This consistency happens when your belief( that you will win the game)- your values- ( preferring to win every time)- your attitude- being honest in your effort )and your behaviour( manifesting in the results you deliver) have proven your worth.Honesty is instantaneous- like a flower pot- short-lived yet beautiful.Integrity is like a candle- boring unexciting but reliable.
India needs people with integrityπ
