Allowing direct pharma advertising has been an unmitigated disaster on the public. Dangerous untested and ineffective drugs without proper studies are just candy coated and given exotic brand names by misleading advertising with only the profit motive in mind.
"Do not be fooled. Pharma advertising has nothing to do with selling their prescription drugs."
HeadSet says
"Do not be fooled. Pharma advertising has nothing to do with selling their prescription drugs."
Tell us again HeadSet, what planet do you come from?

"HeadSet is right about this. The drug companies are primarily concerned with controlling the news to suppress the horrible truth about their drugs, and the way they control the news is to threaten to take away their advertising revenue."
A doctor is not going to care what ad his patient saw on TV when the doctor does a diagnostic and treatment.
Yesterday, MSNBC ran a wonderfully encouraging story headlined, ““CDC is over”: RFK Jr. lays off over 1,000 employees in Friday night massacre.” It was the pandemic department. The subheadline added, “Amid the ongoing shutdown, the HHS secretary wiped out entire offices that investigate disease outbreaks, manage infectious disease responses, and collect data.”
Not only that, but Kennedy closed the CDC’s Washington, DC, branch. Completely. Kaput.
HHS closed down the entire director’s office at the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases — meaning all the center’s leaders.
One former NCIRD leader felt downright gloomy about it. “CDC is over. It was killed,” whined occult Satanist and bondage fetishist Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, former director of the National Center on Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (and Monkeypox Czar), who recently “resigned” over what he described as Kennedy’s “unscientific takeover” of the CDC.
“This administration only knows how to break things. They have placed America at risk for outbreaks and attacks by nefarious players. People should be scared,” said Mr. Monkeypox.
Scared is how they prefer that we be.
On an aside: I can’t believe they picked this guy —Daskalakis— to be the figurehead for CDC “resistance.” Why not just pick Moloch, or Beezlebub, or even Satan himself? And I was especially chilled by his reference to “attacks by nefarious players.” Was Daskalakis in charge of bioweapons defense? But I digress.
Many top CDC leaders felt the axe’s razor-sharp steel on their professional necks. The office of the director at the CDC’s Global Health Center was abolished (it managed “international” coordination). The cuts also included the entire team that publishes the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, as false and deceptive of a government publication to ever soak up ink. ...
The recurring question I am asked at speaking events —more often than any other inquiry— is whether there will ever be accountability ...
But the firings admit that accountability is well underway, and accelerating. Fauci is one old man, the withered face of an iceberg of incompetence that manufactured the worst, most incompetent disaster in modern American history. The vast army of Fauci’s enablers has been called to account.
And it’s just getting started.
Dr. Steven Hatfill (senior HHS advisor) has been fired 'with cause' as he speaks out of coup from INSIDE the house to remove RFK Jr.! ...
Word is (from anonymous persons sitting in the cabinet) coup is being led by Chief of Staff Matt Buckham to remove RFK Jr. What is the Outlaw Josie Susie Wales’s role in this? Coup.
Word is Cassidy & the Outlaw Wales is running the show and Bobby Jr. has zero power. Zero! The agency heads just pose. worthless. damages the fight. CDC, NIH, FDA, HHS subversives. IMO should all be fired as are part of the coup. RFK Jr. just has not clued in yet!
Yesterday, the New York Times reported on the latest improvement from Kennedy’s HHS in a story headlined, “F.D.A. Moves to Speed Approvals for Cheaper Copycat Drugs.” Kennedy’s team just closed another profit-guaranteeing loophole for Big Pharma.
Along with FDA chief Marty Makary, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., announced “reforms” to restore competition and lower drug costs for patients related to a broad category of “biologic” drugs.
Biologics are medical treatments made using living cells, rather than being chemically synthesized like traditional drugs. Popular and widely-prescribed biologics include treatments for everything like lupus, cancer, diabetes (insulin), arthritis, macular degeneration, monoclonal antibodies, and of course mRNA vaccines. Biologics are often given as infusions.
Many older biologics have passed out of patent. But there still aren’t any generic options, because the manufacturing process is much more complicated than for chemical-based drugs, and this somehow resulted in an even more complicated set of regulations for companies who want to make low-cost generics (called “biosimilars”).
Some conspiracy theorists speculated wildly that the regulations were designed to keep out competition and protect pharma profits even after the initial patent period.
Fixing it has never been an insurmountable challenge. Europe, for example, has much simpler regulations for biosimilars and thus, Europeans enjoy more generic options for these popular treatments, spurred along by their socialist medical systems that flat won’t pay for expensive drugs anyways.
FDA Commissioner Makary said the simplified rules should halve the current five- to eight-year timeline for biosimilar approval in the US. He predicted the changes would save biosimilar makers tens of millions of dollars in development costs, and that savings could theoretically be passed along to patients via their insurance companies, although it will probably require additional incentives in the form of electric cattle prods.
Anyway, despite widespread whining from Democrats claiming that Kennedy doesn’t believe in modern medicine and prefers holistic treatments made from cow dung and lightning bug excrescence, HHS continues to chip away at Big Pharma’s traditional fortress of Guaranteed Profit. As helpful as alternative treatments may be, many Americans still depend on these expensive categories of drugs, and this kind of common-sense reform is great news for them, and bad news for the giant, over-funded drugmakers.
Faster, please.
Controversy erupted this week over the recent firing of former senior biosecurity adviser Steven J. Hatfill.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) confirmed that it terminated Hatfill last weekend “for cause.” Hatfill had served since May as senior adviser at the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response, or ASPR — the HHS division that coordinates the nation’s preparedness and response to medical and public health emergencies.
In an interview this week with The New York Times, Hatfill claimed that agency insiders, led by Chief of Staff Matt Buckham, removed him as part of a “coup to overthrow” U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
On one hand, this story is a long-awaited vindication. On the other hand, nearly every living American adult is aware of at least one person who died from the jabs, a fact that has transformed 2025 life into a surreal Kabuki theater experience. We know, but we have to pretend we don’t know. Either way, yesterday the New York Times ran an 8-word headline I have been expecting to eventually see since summer, 2021: “FDA Expands Covid Vaccine Inquiry to Adult Deaths.”
