They are. And the US also has famously high prescription drug prices. I'm not certain that the two are related, but it certainly seems plausible.

- adventured 8y agoIt makes a lot more sense that that would directly tie to the US healthcare system approach and how it prices products & services rather than more to the ad market impact. Everything in the US healthcare market is similarly far more expensive. From radiologist salaries, to a bag of saline, to hospital stays. You could cut pharma prices in the US in half through increased negotiating power, imported drugs and government price restrictions for Medicare/Medicaid and still have a very large industry full of advertising.
