This is the same article as yesterday basically. No mention of Lipitor or Celebrex. Move on man! Stop the vendetta. Between you and Raymond, I am beginning to think it is me that is crazy.

But this more or less amounts to an admission that so-called blockbuster
drugs just don't work because people's individual genetic make up aren't that
uniform. In other words, different drugs for different people and that means
the emergence of niche drug companies instead of the powerhouses we have now.


This statement is only half correct. The markets will fragment as stated but, the companies will need to charge more money for each drug, since the price of clinical trials will not be any cheaper. So, expect much higher prices for drugs.
