I was stuck between B and E but chose E because I thought it must be true that it won't be cost effective.
Can you please explain why it isn't E?
Thank you

Hello @farnoushsalimian,
E is incorrect, because we will never know if the drug is cost-effective or not. The only way to get this information is if the government service pays for the drug's circulation. The government will not do so without knowing the cost-effectiveness beforehand. These conflicting requirements mean that the drug will never be in widespread circulation, which is why B is correct. It doesn't matter if the drug is or isn't cost-effective, because that knowledge will never be available. We cannot conclude that E must be true.
