FDA: Dr. Mike's 1997 Model "Gold Standard" Johnson

DR. Michael A. Friedman was FDA Deputy Commisioner for Operations in 1997. Here's his testimony to the US Senate Committee On Labor and Human Resources from March 19, 1997.

paragraph 2:

"Because of the protections in the food and drug laws, and the Agency's implementation of those laws, Americans do not have to worry about the safety or effectiveness of literally thousands of products they use every day, from breakfast cereal to pain relievers, from contact lenses to vaccines."

Yeah, Sure. That's why those FDA Approved Psych Poisons have got their Makers in Court all over Hell's/America's half acre today.

paragraph 3:

"An important measure of our value as an Agency, and of our success at fulfilling our mission to promote and protect the public health, ...... It is a measure by which, I believe, we have done very well."

Done very Well? For WHO, ..... beside Yourself, Pharma and the American Funeral Directors Assc.

paragraph 5:

"We recognize that the industries we regulate have important contributions to make, .... "

Yes they Do. $500 Million Dollars worth, .... directly into FDAs "safe and effective" hot little hands.

"We heard from the members of this Committee and others in Congress that there were problems in how we do our job, ..... "

And you're Still hearing about them, and OUR Crystal Ball says today's FDA is going to being Hearing One Hell of a Lot MORE about them, ..... which is WHY FDA is currently pushing for Preemption, to run cover for its buddies in Pharma.

paragraph 7:

"The Agency has focused on approval times, and as I will describe today, we have seen real results. We know much remains to be done. Just as we are continuing to work with industry, ..... "

II. IMPROVING PRODUCT REVIEW TIMES

A. HUMAN DRUG REVIEWS AND APPROVALS

No area of FDA's responsibility has been more closely scrutinized by Congress, industry, health professionals and the public than the approval process for new drugs, or more specifically, the speed with which new therapies of proven effectiveness and safety are made available to those who need them. For years there has been public discussion of the so-called "drug lag," the concern that new therapies were consistently being approved in Europe more quickly than in the United States. Today we are approving drugs in time periods that are as fast or faster than any country in the world with a comparable system of patient protection. And we are doing it while maintaining the standards for safety and efficacy that make FDA approval the gold standard for the world.

Check our links on Psych Poison Adverse Reactions Reported To The FDA, and then You, Dear Reader, decide whether the FDA's "gold standard" might not be more accurately described as "Barnyard Gold".

US CONSTITUTION

Amendment VIII

"Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENTS INFLICTED.

TARDIVE DYSKINESIA VIDEO OF AN ACTUAL EPISODE

Watch the VIDEO, ..... MIKE, and pat yourself on the back, for helping to assure that these "safe and effective" public health "breakthroughs" which you have "Done very well" to see speedily approved through "Working with Industry" continue to "Reach the Public" and aren't caught up in any unnecessary, regulatory, profit impairing delays.

Then explain to us just what HEINOUS CRIME this woman committed, which allowed some FDA approved Dope Dealing Psychic to toss her VIII Amendment right out the window, and CONSIGN THIS WOMAN, to a LIVING HELL, for THE REST OF HER LIFE? But WTF difference would the VIII Amendment make; when Psychiatry - with every Writ of Execution it Exudes - violates the ENTIRE BILL OF RIGHTS?


Folks; Once You've been prescribed Psych meds, you have to go somewhere to Buy them, and keep going back there to Keep buying them, because they CURE NOTHING, except your Doktor, your DRUG CO Stockholder, and your Pharmacist's, ..... personal piles of bills.

Businesswire.com has Dr. Mike joining the California Healthcare Institute Board. Here we learn that: "He helped to streamline the FDA’s review and approval process and provided oversight of evaluations for drugs, biologics, medical devices and food ingredients."

Does that mean that Dr. Mike's "help" might win AstraZeneca FDA approval of their - 8,787 lawsuits with 13,000 injured and DEAD complainants - Seroquel for treating "General Anxiety Disorder"?

And, ..... Dr. Mike has also served as the Chief Medical Officer for This illustrious group of public spirited "Health Care Breakthrough" Innovators.
