Are you referencing the baby powder?

that's what came to mind first. but im sure with a company that old they've got all sorts of skeletons, formulas they stopped using decades ago.

Probably.

The baby powder case was stupid as hell IMO

pharma is full of skeletons but baby powder isn't one of them.

most carcinogen cases are. the number of users compared to linked cancer cases are tiny.

its just piggy backing off of Truth.org's success against tobacco to scare monger up class action lawsuits for settlements.

my aunt had a failed surgical mesh, was pointed towards a class action lawsuit where she'd stand to make like 200$. she didnt even bother, the payment pool is so diluted, and to do a case by yourself is crazy expensive.

Implants in general are one giant skeleton. John Oliver did a good episode on it that I highly recommend.

Basically as long as your new implant is "substantially similar" to an old one you don't have to go through approval. So you take a fake hip, make a small change, don't need new approval. Then Ship of Theseus until you have a totally new item that is destroying patients joints and bodies with very little recourse against the manufacturer.

Its a disgrace to the real scandals

You're lost, if the fda wont even approve it as a poduct, it's that bad. Not hard to grasp.

Ngl I cracked pretty hard ty

I mostly agree, although I think he was referring to natural sources like Pumpkin seeds and sunlight

"wont approve it" is about as disingenuous as you can get.

FDA requires testing longer than was realistic, but in time the vaccine will be approved under the regular process.

this is where u tinfoil heads are silly. you dunderheads think there's a shadow organization that controls everything, implying they could push through FDA approval anyways, because they presumably control the FDA like everything else. but then also use lack of FDA approval as "proof". it's verbal friendly fire. get your conspiracy straight.
