very dangerous

A bogus opinion that is not backed up by objective evidence.

Studies comparing women with and without implants showed no increased risk of systemic disease. Of course, that was after the hysterics had convinced the idiot Kessler at FDA to remove them and after innocent companies were bankrupted.

Absolutely correct. That was one of the bigger perpetrations of junk science every foisted on this country. It is proven that a lot of women got sick, but it was never proven why or from what.

Absolutely untrue. I was involved cases involving silicone implants. Study show the do cause disease and sickness, and other studies say they don't. So I guess it depends upon your source. So far dowl/corning (sorry about the spelling)has paid out in the hundreds of millions of dollars to woman who have been affected. They are set to make another large payment to the same woman within the next 2 years. This settlement will also be in the hundreds of millions. So far the scientists on this side have produced enough evidence to the arguement. You're repeating some skeptics words.

What also was never mentioned is that Kessler was meeting at least once a week with the lead lawyer in the class action suit.
