Why should drug companies be profitable at all? Seems like the perfect thing to be nationalized and/or even considered a basic necessity.
Governments do have the option of simply buying the patent from the drug company (no communism necessary) but Americans have rejected socialized medicine for Americans. I don't expect that they would want to subsidize medicine for poor Africans.
