When will a serious commission of inquiry on the intersection of interests between health managers and the pharmaceutical industry?

Today the National Primacy publishes an interesting survey that reports, updated, the payments that, for obvious professional reasons, a series of influential health professionals either by position or by permanent presence on social media come to receive from the pharmaceutical industry.

Here are some data. For example Locatelli, who was president of the Scientific Technical Committee:

Bassetti, head physician in Genoa and medical television star:

Pregliasco, another well-known TV medical attendant

All regular payments from the medical industry, but given that these are people with a direct or indirect influence on the choice of treatment, how fitting that their personal interests are not exposed every time they reach out to the public, precisely so that the public knows. what their interests are. Or that they undertake not to make professional commitments before or after a public mandate?

Let a commission in the next parliament clarify the matter.
