The Doc forgot to offer some compensation to the FDA regulator. That’s all that happened here. Always remember to have enough $ set aside for the FDA’s retirement fund.

Trying to figure out the name. It looks like she went to med school in the Dominican Republic.

Its not easy to judge clinical trial data - the effort required to get away with it is hardly worth it.

The risks of getting caught are substantial.

So we can’t use HCQ or Ivermectin for COVID because of lack of Random Controlled Studies, but they get faked. Doctors and researchers make bogus data.

63 months is way too short. She should be in jail for 25 years if you ask me.

From the article:
“The clinical trial was designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of an asthma medication in children between the ages of four and 11. Bencosme and Raventos admitted that they falsified medical records to make it appear as though pediatric subjects made scheduled visits to Unlimited Medical Research, took study drugs as required, and received checks as payment.”

Prison time should be double since children were involved.

“63 months is way too short. She should be in jail for 25 years if you ask me”

Well we’re on a roll, agreeing twice in a week?

I’ll say this much, her actions greatly harm the medical profession.

But this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Paul Offit sat on the ACIP which approved the previous rotavirus vax. When that one was associated with serious injuries, they replaced it with Offit’s own rotavirus patented vax, from which IIRC he made tens of millions of $ in profit.

I wonder who encouraged her to this? Is she taking the fall for someone who paid her to do this?

I don’t disagree with you that there are a lot of awful doctors out there. Our profession gave up a lot of its moral high ground in pursuit of the almighty dollar and it makes me sick.

I cannot stand most administrators and in leadership roles in the hospital have been referred to as a purist. I suppose there are worse things to be. But this so called physician has violated her oath and like many others deserves to be out of our calling

Thank you for posting this. This doctor makes me personally ill

All the best to you this evening.

I wonder how they were caught — was there a whistleblower?
