At a Senate hearing, Dr. David Graham presented evidence regarding the withdrawal of Vioxx and mentioned five other drugs that needed study. The FDA responded that these five drugs are safe. Dr. Graham reported pressure from supervisors to water down his findings on Vioxx.
Dr. Sidney Wolfe, health research director for Public Citizen, a consumer watchdog group, agreed that the FDA supervisors don't want people to talk. The FDA trials are also criticized for being too short, lasting only 12 months. Problems were discovered after 18 months in the Merck trials. The FDA has also not responded to data which show that antidepressants are dangerous to children and teenagers.

"Big Tech and mainstream media are constantly trying to silence the independent voices that dare to bring you the truth about toxic food ingredients, dangerous medications and the failed, fraudulent science of the profit-driven medical establishment.
Email is one of the best ways to make sure you stay informed, without the censorship of the tech giants (Google, Apple, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc.). Stay informed and you'll even likely learn information that may help save your own life."
