(PhysOrg.com) -- A new research paper suggests that pharmaceutical companies can afford to produce less expensive vaccines for lower-income countries because the companies can recover their research and development (R&D) costs through the sale of the vaccine to higher-priced markets. The findings are included in an article co-authored by University of Victoria health economist Rebecca Warburton being published this week in the journal Vaccine.
