ddd [48]

The precautionary principle used by European nations consists of protecting the community from possible harms that can be released for example in the development and release of new drugs or treatments. The principle states that the most important is to offer benefits to the community with the different scientific advances that may contribute to solve different kinds of problems, however in some cases, it is necessary first to analyze the possible risks to make decisions based on the facts.

On the other hand, the innocent-until-proven-guilty approach applied by The United States, consists of proving in a really cautious way the products before being released to the market, the approach states that the responsibility of the products or scientific development relies on the fact that it is innocent until proven guilty.
