    OMG!

    I don't really watch TV or the News, too depressing..This is funny though.. Well not funny for the people who were hoping to save their lives with this drug. It just shows the FDA only cares about the money flowing in, not about the lives of people who count on it to make sure drugs are safe, and effective. I wonder how long it will be if ever for the FDA to invetigate all these new vaccines that are coming out, and states are already mandating them. Such as Gardasil. TX is already mandating for girls to go into 7th grade. ut then again aren't all vaccines free from any investagtions no matter how much data is there to prove there ineffectiveness and dangers. There is more snake oils behind the counter than from the herb and homeopathic section infront of the counter.

    That may be a little bit of an overstatement, but it does have a point. As a side issue, a lot of us feel the AHA and its guidelines for treatment have been open for sale to the highest bidder for years.

    The scariest about it is that they'll simply find another toxic combination of chemicals and promote that as the next wonder drug .................. and people will listen to the hype about it and use it.

    Very sad state of affairs♥
