Thinking of getting vaccinated?

Anyone ???

Are you saying I should give a fuck?

[mashman]

Does anyone remember hearing about this back when the story broke?

No. I was too busy watching the marquee at the bottom as it was all about the war on terror.

Are you saying I should give a fuck?

Well I suppose that depends on how happy you are to excuse Bayer's behaviour.

I'm going to take your cute little meme as "no, never heard that one before".

What - the 30-40 year old HIV tainted blood products issue?

What - the 30-40 year old HIV tainted blood products issue?

Well from what I can make out from the video and other info about it, the story only broke some time around 2005 - but Bayer had successfully kept it under wraps for the previous 20 years.

Are you saying that you were posting up shit that is over 30 years old? Phew , dodged that bullet. Try being relevant.

Well it's quite relevant if the subject is 'what degree of trust should we have in the pharmaceutical industry'.

Are you saying that always focussing on the negative is a healthy way to live ones life? There are drugs for that you know.

And that shows how much you bother to fact-check things....

Still, being 2 years out is an improvement for you.

On August 22, 2003,[5] MSNBC's Scarborough Country had Bayer on their "Rat of the Week" segment.

Thanks for that, you little dancing puppet.

Sure.

Anytime you want further proof of you confirmation bias, I'll be happy to oblige.

So how do you feel about a drug company knowingly dumping an infected product on other markets simply to make a profit?

I feel that it was something that happened ages ago.

I also feel that having proper governmental oversight (that we have in the western world) provides an adequate check and balance.

Like the FDA allowing Bayer to continue dumping their infected product on other markets?

Is that the sort of 'check and balance' you're talking about?

by 'Other Markets' you mean the ones that are outside of the FDAs Jurisdiction?

So, it's not a case of 'allowing', its a case of 'no power to stop'.

But please, don't let reality cloud your fantasy.
