I always rejected the jeering at “Big Pharma.” I am a capitalist. I believe that profit driven drug therapies are a great hope for mankind. The best minds are working tirelessly and at great risk to find cures and helps for so many diseases and maladies. This is a good thing in my opinion and I don’t think the results of their efforts should be profit free.

I am not a commie!

If there is no profit in research and development we will have nothing but socialist idiot drugs. Worthless or harmful. I want good profit driven companies leading the way.

But now, I have no more trust in the big pharmaceutical companies. Their brand is ruined. I don’t believe anything they say nor do I trust the government to do its job making sure that false claims are not being made.

Even without scientific knowledge, one should have gotten suspicious when the line was crossed from "hey, we may have something" into the hard sell, coercion, and rubber stamping in the face of disturbing data.

I won't be available tomorrow, but remind me to look up and share with you a couple of pertinent documents and articles on Moderna.

And, for that matter, Pfizer's track record.

You most likely speak for MILLIONS.

I agree with your post. These vaccines were purchased by governments without normal testing, and the pharmaceuticals were guaranteed non-liability. These governments forced people to take them.

This is not the way drugs are normally produced and sold in a capitalist society. I’m no commie either!

I could have written the same post. Come from family of MD’s and I practiced oral surgery over 40 years. Heard “big pharma” used by alternative medicine types as pejorative over and over and thought it was just quackery. I was wrong and they were right in many regards.
