To bad he’s already spent at least $2Mil.

Yet big pharma is supposed to be our holy grail. Why does most of the world have so much trust in these people?

How come it is only a monitory penalty. Isn't it criminal?

Illness is capital. More sick people more money.

Pfizer: “Hold my beer.”

Couldn't have happened to a more deserving guy.
