“My only hope was to volunteer my expertise to help America find our way out of this pandemic, as every American who has a skill set to offer hopefully should be willing to do,” Harris said in his statement.
Javitt — who is also vice chairman of the board of directors at Relief Therapeutics, which holds the patent on aviptadil — told POLITICO that he selected Harris for the data committee because of the congressman’s experience in critical care settings. Javitt also said that the FDA signed off on the trial knowing that Harris would be involved with the committee.
FDA’s guidance for data monitoring committees recommends that at least one member is a “biostatistician knowledgeable about statistical methods for clinical trials and sequential analysis of trial data.” But neither Harris nor the other two members of the NeuroRx panel fit that bill. But all three of the NeuroRx panel members have professional or personal relationships with Javitt. Sommer, the chair of the data committee, worked with Javitt at Johns Hopkins; the pair have known each other for about 40 years. Javitt met Colwell during her tenure leading NSF, when he was a fellow at the non-profit Potomac Institute for Policy Studies providing support to the agency.
“You don’t want three well-intentioned friends being spoon-fed information from the trial and who can’t look at it critically,” Turner added.
unpaid my ass

joncoopertweets Don’t let Andy Harris put you to sleep
joncoopertweets Another bearded lunatic?
gloveisoff The confused quack doesn't know that he is the Cult. Don't start calling mask wearers a Cult. He's a doctor. Not a very good one, but we should not have to draw pictures, like we do with Trump, to define 'Cult'.
My faith in the process is now through the roof. 🙄
Hypocrisisy is a luxury for the likes of this man
Everyone, what about this drug that saves people's lives from covid called aviptadil. It also goes by name rlf-100. It is really saving lives! It needs to start. rlftf aviptadil Neurorx is getting it to Americans. Relief therapeutics is the owner of the patent.
Don’t trust him as far as I can throw him.
So much for any drug or vaccine approved during this administration. You'd have to be crazy. Speaking of which, Texas hospitals reported c. 50 people who'd drunk bleach.
.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Assjack.
Good for him
Maryland's version of Texas's Louie Gohmert, Kentucky's Tom Massie, Arizona's Andy Biggs, I/we could go on all day. .
Is he a Congressman b/c his practice of medicine was dangerous for his patients and he was going to lose his license?
Clearly that raises questions about the credibility of those trials.
One more dumb shit.
