I was speaking abou the FDA as a whole. It seems drugs approved 5-10
years ago now have swarms of ambulance chasers plastering 10 second
commercials urging people to file claims again these drug companies. We

trails at face value. They rush to get things approved, no matter who
gets killed along the way.
