Unfortunately, while the new mantra of biotechnology is to claim that someday soon pharmaceuticals will be marketed to individuals based on their DNA, the fundamental truth is that selling drugs is still a mass-market business. Target markets consist of groups and population aggregates, not individuals.
遗憾的是，尽管个体DNA状况将很快成为药物销售依据的说法正日益成为生物技术的最新魔咒，药物销售如今仍是大规模综合业务的事实并未改变。目标市场中包含着团体和人口集合，而并非单一的个人。因此对制药行业来说，种族划分仅仅具备经济上的意义。
