Studies involving Avandia were “too murky to merit drastic regulatory action” and other diabetes drugs may have similar risks.Apparently, causing hundreds of thousands of heart attacks, strokes, and death does not warrant regulatory action in the eyes of the FDA.FDA drug safety officer Dr. David Graham — one of my heroes — may have been the lone voice calling for Avandia’s withdrawal from the market…. Already, a senior FDA scientist was removed for voicing concerns about Avandia.Further, it has been revealed that Avandia’s maker, GlaxoSmithKline, told the FDA about the heart risks nearly two years ago, but no warnings were made because of internal FDA disagreements about what to do with the drug.When you consider that last year Avandia brought in $3.4 billion in sales worldwide, it’s fairly clear what the decision-makers are up against: deciding whether to sacrifice billions of dollars in profits to save a hundred thousand or so lives.Please, if you or someone you love has type 2 diabetes, review How to Finally Make Diabetes Disappear.
Reporting suspected side effects of a drug is voluntary and completely unenforced, which leads to a rather haphazard, incomplete and incorrect evaluation of the real damage being inflicted.Avandia has been on the market for eight years, even though GlaxoSmithKline’s own analysis indicated heightened cardiac risks at least a year before the New England Journal study was published…. Yet the FDA stood idly by, allowing an untold number of individuals to put their lives at risk. No doubt thousands have already lost their lives unnecessarily.Not only is type 2 diabetes completely preventable, but it is virtually curable for anyone who is willing to put in the hard time and work and recovering their insulin and leptin sensitivity.
Three Girls Died, Others Hospitalized, After HPV VaccineAmid controversy over state legislatures in the U.S. requiring young girls to take Gardasil, Merck’s new vaccine for human papillomavirus (HPV), severe side effects are being reported.1,637 adverse reactions have been reported by Judicial Watch, a public interest watchdog, including three girls who died shortly after receiving the immunization…. There have also been reports from the National Vaccine Information Center about fainting and dizziness reported by dozens of patients as side effects of Gardasil, and there are even some concerns that Gardasil may cause infertility.These are steep risks for a vaccine that only sometimes protects against HPV, which is virtually 100 percent avoidable without an expensive and potentially fatal vaccine.Please realize that Merck has manipulated the medical and political system to FORCE children to get this dangerous vaccine for their own bottom line profit.
There is little medical evidence that the vaccines have any kind of beneficial effect, even for vulnerable people with asthma and cystic fibrosis, he said.Vaccines given to children under the age of two have the same effect as if they were given a dummy drug, he added.Tom Jefferson, co-ordinator of the vaccines field of the highly-respected Cochrane Collaboration, called for an “urgent” re-evaluation of vaccination campaigns.Writing in the British Medical Journal (BMJ), he said that, because influenza viruses mutate and vary from year to year, it was difficult for scientists to study the precise effects of vaccines.Most studies are of poor quality, and there is little comparative evidence on the safety of the vaccines, he said…. He continued: “A similar philosophy is the ‘we have to make decisions and cannot wait to have perfect data’ approach.”In a separate background paper, Dr Jefferson said: “Reviews show a consistent picture of modest or no effect of inactivated vaccines and poor quality of the original studies, especially those that are not randomised controlled trials.”Referring to the gap between policy and evidence, he said that “given the huge resources involved in yearly vaccination campaigns, a re-evaluation should be urgently undertaken”.Earlier this month, there were fears that vulnerable people in the UK might have to wait for flu jabs after the Government confirmed stocks would arrive late.The jab is given to high-risk groups first, including the over-65s, people with respiratory conditions such as asthma, and those with chronic conditions such as diabetes.
