“New FDA leadership has strong ties to Big Pharma, Wall Street” (url)
(NewsTarget) According to Byron J. Richards, author of "Fight For Your Health: Exposing The FDA’S Betrayal of America," the FDA is in a position to change the health and wellbeing of all Americans, but are set to steer that change in the wrong direction, "straight over a cliff."
The root of this problem, Richards says, is the involvement of the pharmaceutical industry — also known as "Big Pharma" — in the FDA decision-making process.
"The top two positions at the FDA are now headed by Big Pharma representatives," Richards says. "The Bush-appointed new FDA leadership is intent on removing any brakes being applied to the drug approval process, quite happy to turn ill Americans into human guinea pigs."
One of the "Big Pharma representatives" Richards is referring to is Andrew von Eschenbach M.D., interim head of the FDA since October. Currently, von Eschenbach — a Bush family friend, Richards notes — is awaiting a Senate vote to decide if he should hold the position permanently.
……
The von Eschenbach-run FDA also came under fire during a Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) and Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) survey of FDA scientists, which found that the agency was "perverting science for political and financial benefactors," Richards said. The report also quoted scientists who said that Congress, FDA management, and the media were too easily able to interfere with their work.
