Can someone please post full text?
From reading the 2 paragraphs that were available without paywall (see below):
>Some 24,000 patients have sued in California state court for failing to introduce an allegedly safer version of an HIV drug. The Food and Drug Administration in 2001 approved a life-saving HIV medication by Gilead. The plaintiffs don’t argue that the drug is defective or lacked adequate warnings.
I think there's something deeper at play here. If it was approved in 2001, and it was a novel drug, sure, than I agree, Gilead should have probably continued the R&D process on the drug to make it even safer. But the devil is always in the details, and from the 2 paragraphs I could read without being paywalled, there's something I'm missing here that would logically provide greater context.
