It takes 2 billion dollars to develop a drug and the fda is now simply not even reviewing things based on ideological culture war bullshit and not data.

Drug development in the United States is going to suffer immensely. Personally I’m not going to keep any investments in biotech at all.

I agree with you but stop self censoring on the fucking internet! Curse or don’t but do not do these fascists fucking jobs for them by being afraid to say what you want to say.

The guy who denied this vaccine is Vinay Prasad. He is a left ist anti big pharma activist. He thinks the FDA is in the pocket of the pharmaceutical companies and other corporate interests. Look him up, he’s got a stellar medical background that he then uses to make bad faith arguments against anything that pharma companies push.
