This is outrageous but typical behavior for our
government which has become one with
the corporate
world. There used to be a thin line that demarcated the two but with
BushCo
Inc in power, it has
dissolved. There is no discernable difference today between
our
government and Big Biz.
Unfortunately, both are corrupt. Peace, D. Mindock
FDA in Third World Drug Trial Scandals
Experimental tests are conducted in developing countries on sick and vulnerable children under the guise of free and ethical treatments sanctioned by the FDA and complicit medical institutions. Sam Burcher and Dr. Mae-Wan Ho A fully referenced version of this report is posted on ISIS members website. Details here Unapproved GM rice serum tested on sick infantsTwo children suffered serious allergic reactions after being used as guinea pigs by the California-based company Ventria Bioscience in Lima, Peru [1]. The children were part of a clinical trial of a genetically modified (GM) rice serum containing two synthetic human proteins lactoferrin and lysozyme (normally found in human milk and other bodily fluids), not yet approved for testing in the US or anywhere else in the world. Ventria had experienced stiff opposition for growing the GM rice in its home country. It was driven out of California and southeast Missouri in 2005, but managed to grow the GM rice in North Carolina [2] (Molecular Pharming - the New Battlefront over GM Crops , SiS27). The company was hoping to sell the GM rice as a nutraceutical presumably on grounds that it provided extra nutrition. Nevertheless, it was unlikely to gain approval for a clinical trial in the US; so, like other companies, it decided to target Third World countries where regulations are lax.
