FDA Approves New Intravenous Monkeypox Drug Treatment From PFIZER-Linked SIGA Technologies

a reply to: andy06shake

I watched a very informative documentary released in 2005 the other day called 'Dying for Drugs'......I recommend watching it. You can find it online for free.

TPOXX is not a vaccine. Vaccines generate the most revenue.

Maybe they are waiting for the CDC and the Media to scare the daylights out of everyone first, like in 2020.

Biden said last night Monkeypox could be a big deal in America pretty soon.

Illegitimate President BIDEN really is hoping to use MonkeyPox as a cure for a ton of Problems.

THE FEAR OF MONKEYPOX

Will remove focus from his failing Administration

Will remove focus from our failed Congress

Will remove focus from former First Lady Hillary Clinton's treason

Will remove focus from the Biden family crimes being exposed on Hunter's laptops.

Will put Fauci and his Media whores into action scaring the population.

Will be the reason for not voting in person this November (or delaying the midterms).

Will generate Trillions of dollars for drug companies and the medical profession as vaccines and treatments magically and mysteriously appear.

The plot being just how far drug companies are willing to go to get their drugs approved?

Ile grab the torrent when/if it materialises.

I won't dispute the activities and shady shenanigans that some pharmaceutical companies have been linked to regarding developing countries.

I think its quite clear they are not in this game for the goodness of their heart.

But picture a world without access to modern medical health care and pharmaceuticals and that really would be hell on earth for a significant number of people.

Unfortunately, and just like with the bankers, fascinated with money and profit, these bastards are a necessary evil in today's world.

Else it all falls to pieces, and there go things like treatment for diabetes, no more transplants or immunosuppressants, no Warfarin or blood thinners, no more antibiotics, picture that world for some because unfortunately that's the alternative to modern-day pharmaceuticals.

But it is not just in the Third World that ethics of drug testing are being called into question. In Canada, we meet a world expert in the blood disease thalassemia who was removed from the programme she ran at Toronto University and legally gagged from discussing her findings after she raised doubts about a drug she was testing.

Cheers I've got that book marked, and will give it a watch later.

A load of what look like decent documentaries on that site.

You should start a thread on the documentary.

Trials are a very slippery slope and walk a very fine line. What do you do when at some point you need real humans with diseases to actually test new drugs. Looking at COVID people here keep saying they want long term studies and that is just impossible to do. I even asked what does that mean? Does it mean 10 years of testing it in some African country?

Testing has 3 phases, and the first one is to first determine how up front dangerous is the drug to humans. Followed by does it actually do anything with further testing for the initial efficacy of the drugs and further dangers. Lastly is a larger pool of people to build on the efficacy and dangers to determine risk to reward.

We don't need to go back very far to see patient ethics has not been around very long and is mainly in the west. Places like China, Russia, India etc pretty much have none and follow the principle that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. The first part of the video talked about a massive epidemic, so what do you do in that case, what ethics can you push aside? Tough questions to answer.

This is not just some Pfizer thing as there are 1000 of pharmaceutical companies all walking that fine line every time they make a new drug and there are zero drugs safe to everyone so it always comes down to the risk to reward as to whether the drug is good or not even if people die from it too.

I did a post in the recent past on a drug called Aducanumab. The FDA approved it for Alzheimer's even though it had weak trial's results. The company then put a price tag of 56,000 per year for something that provides minimal results. If Medicare gave it to the 6 million Alzheimer's patients it would cost 336 billion per year.

So the bottom-line is we need to hold these companies accountable when required without demonizing every aspect of the pharmaceutical world as there is still a lot of good mixed in with some of the bad.

I typically view the pharmaceutical world as a mix of different entities. You have 10,000s of very smart people trying their best their whole lives to make good drugs. Then you have the business side and that is where the rot we see at times come from and they only look as to how to maximize profits and minimize capital risk.

Lets say we have a drug that a team of good people spent years developing, maybe decades. It shows promise for XYZ disease and so the business side take it and says how fast can we get it to market without really caring about the drugs efficacy and dangers. They want their investments back and profits. Now, most times it still works out well because you still have those developers that do really good jobs, but yes, there are times these companies step over the line into bad ethics and even down right illegal practices.

Monkeypox is probably Shingles from folks who took the Clot Shots and now have VAIDS .........Just a Theory ..

We do not need this crap of treatment we already have antivirals that will work on those that get the rare monkey pox, and if you were born before the 1980, you already got the smallpox vaccine and you are immune to this weaker version of smallpox.

It takes years for the FDA to proper evaluation and it's as if they had the Monkey pox news & treatments lined up.

When AaarghPharmies comes in to defend the smallpox vaccine we can officially confirm they’re employed by a Pharma company

And when Homeophathycheck comes in to denounce big pharma we can officially confirm that they're being paid by big-chiropractic.

What's an affiliate link for kale smoothies worth these days?

It's a reformatting of an existing product, making these things is really just a matter of throwing money at them. Big pharma can do these things quickly if it's topical and they think that they can make some money out of it. It's not that difficult form a scientific perspective, it's just not profitable.

Just look at Zicca, nobody bothered to make a vaccine for it until somebody realized that it was heading for Florida, where standing water in golf courses and private pools would allow mosquito to infect affluent areas.

You're right that it's about money, but wrong about it being a conspiracy.

It's simply capitalism.

Your judgement on the entire matter is highly questionable at best. As if you would even know.

My point exactly.

A double-edged sword i suppose, but as i suggest, the world today could not function in the manner it does, without large-scale production and use of the products pharmaceutical companies produce.

What about the price they charge?
Did you see how the price is outside normal peoples price range (the south Korea bit in documentary)? They are literally dying for drugs because the drugs are there but they don't have the money.

It's ok for some at the moment.....some people don't even have to pay a prescription charge.....they get their pills absolutely free (Scotland and Wales).

The prices are atrocious Itisnowagain, but they are in it for profit and gain as opposed to helping their fellow man, well the money men and company directors are any road.

God bless our national health service eh for what its worth?

I dont know about ok but better than the alternative, you see we may very well get free prescriptions here in Scotland and also Wales but its factored into the "Barnett formula" and we do not receive additional money or funding to foot the bill.

The Scottish Government uses the money available to them to give us free prescriptions in Scotland.

England could do the same if you manage to convince your politicians to implement the service.

Still wont change the pharmaceutical companies' rhetoric all the same, them ripping the arse out of it, nor them being a necessary evil in todays world.

Typically the price is high for like 7 years then other companies can make generics and those 7 years is where they make their profits and payback for the cost to make it. Viagra comes to mind when I think it was like 100 bucks at first back in the 90s. Those most of us here see it as somewhat bad ethics I'm not sure what the point is outside of that. Isn't SK social medicine too?
