The marketing of statins set the stage for the marketing of the Covid jabs. These toxic drugs produce at best 1-3% ARR (for composite endpoints) but are sold using their 33-50% RRR. Amplifying minuscule or non-existent benefits, while downplaying harms, is one of the core Pharma MOs, and is used across the board.

Richard: That appears to be thr truth. So the solution? My two part answer is: 1) get more citizens to be Critical Thinkers, which includes fixing our K-12 education system, which is teaching the OPPOSITE of Critical Thinking in Science [NGSS], and 2) change regulations and laws so that the FDA actually works for what is in the best interest of the public.
PDUFA in 1992 institutionalized industry funding of FDA with obvious conflicts of interest. This must be ended, along with the revolving door.
Richard: Yes, those are two of several serious liabilities with the current FDA.
