WHy THESE PROBLENS?---FACTS BEHIND THE NEWS
Mistakes or omissions by the FDA have caused serious physical and mental problems to the public and have even been fatal in many cases. Why is the Food and Drug Admi so inept?
There are several reasons. One is how the FDA operates. The FDA structural system is deeply flawed. The FRA does not have its own laboratories. The FDA DEPENDS ON THE MANUFACTURERS TO NOTIFY IT WHEN THERE ARE QUESTIONS OR POSSIBLE TROUBLES WITH MEDICINES.
This is a common method used by the Bush Adm. Their thought is to minimize the role of gov’t. The idea is to let the industry police itself. This method of oversight creates an OBVIOUS CONFLICT OF INTEREST. After a company has usually invested several million dollars and perhaps several years of time it is very difficult for the management to admit to large health problems.
Generally a company will publicize the good results and minimize the questionable or trouble parts. In some cases if appears that the company has deliberately hidden results that they feel may cause trouble to patients and alert gov’t regulators. See next blog..
