California decides to regulate carbon emissions and calculates the marginal cost of abatement and marginal benefit of abatement as follows:

MCA = 30 + Q, MBA = 150 – 3Q.

(a) (6 points) If California wants to maximize welfare by setting a tax, what tax should it set?

(b) (4 points) An alternative to the “market-based” tax in part (a), is command-and-control regulation. Briefly explain the drawback(s) of a “command-and-control” approach relative to the tax in part (a)?

(c) (4 points) Suppose carbon emissions have impacts outside of California but California only takes into account the impacts inside California. If California were to take into account all the impacts, explain whether the MCA or MBA curves would shift inwards or outwards and whether the tax in part (a) would be too high or too low relative to the welfare-maximizing tax.

(d) (8 points) Suppose California misses the optimal tax in part (a) and sets a tax of t = 70. How much abatement will occur? What will be the deadweight loss?

Advertising and Politics

/in /by

Think about advertising for products that you either own or are interested in. What are two of the advertising techniques being used? What is the target audience for the advertising (who are they trying to reach)?
Think about advertising for political candidates or propositions that are on the ballot in November. What are two of the techniques being used to promote their viewpoint and influence you? What is the target audience for the political ad (who are they trying to reach)?
OPTIONAL: If you want to do something different, you can comment on whether particular news shows are promoting a particular viewpoint and what target audience they are trying to reach or appeal to… also, in the last Presidential Election, more people who were eligible to vote, chose to not vote rather than vote for either candidate. Is not voting in your opinion, a rightful choice?

Spontaneous reporting

/in /by

We have discussed the vital role that spontaneous reporting plays in post-market/post-approval pharmacovigilance. Patient (consumer) and health care provider (HCP) reporting of potential adverse drug reactions and the subsequent medical adjudication and data-basing of this information into systems such as FDA’s FAERS and UMC’s Vigibase databases forms the backbone of how we continue to develop the safety profile and benefit: risk profile of approved drugs/biologics.

A unique part of the world we live in today is the ubiquity of social media. Facebook. Instagram. Twitter. We have so many tools at our fingertips for expressing our opinions to a large audience. And naturally, social media has become a platform for people to share their experiences with approved drugs/biologics.

Spend some time looking into the role that social media might play in serving as a platform for people to informally report on potential adverse drug reactions. See the following to get you started:

  1. MedSafety Week: https://www.who.int/medicines/news/2019/medicines-safety-week/en/
  2. “Using Facebook to Increase Spontaneous Reporting of Adverse Drug Reactions” See Week 11 “Assignments” tab for link to PDF

Share your thoughts on how you think social media might be used to help identify adverse drug reactions. What are the pros and cons of this type of approach? How might we get the social media ADRs transferred to databases like FAERS and VigiBase?
