Whip - Yep, the FDA has pulled the plug on some others for sure. A doctor was just on Good Morning America talking about who else has their hand in the epi price pie. Mylan, drug distributors, insurance companies ( big shock there !! ), and some type of benefit " administrators ". ( I love that term - administrators. Nothing more than another set of hands sucking money from the system they're embedded in. ) Think tick, or leach.
This type of robbery is JUST NOT POSSIBLE !!!!!!! THESE PEOPLE ARE PILLARS OF THE COMMUNITY !!!!!!!!!! I'm sure if we look further down the ladder, we will find a disgruntled employee, a ROGUE employee bent on climbing the corporate ladder .......... you know ....... These lower life-forms are always the real culprits. :rolleyes:
And Whip ....... How can you be so cynical about someone getting greased behind closed doors ??? ( post #10 ) That kind of stuff, like paying for someone's kids' college educations, brown envelopes full of cash, vacations, cars, etc. - it's just Hollywood fantasy !!!!!! These are fine, up-standing folks that belong to 4 country clubs, the Chamber of Commerce, the Better Business Bureau ( proven pay-for-rating - 60 minutes or 20-20, I believe ),
the local church, have vacation homes in Vail, the Adirondacks, Montana, and an island in the Carribean, and live in a splendid, gated community. It's simply not possible that they are involved in any wrongdoing or price gouging. :rolleyes:
The good news is that 2 other companies are going to produce delivery systems of epinephrine. That was just talked about in the news this A.M. More people working on the problem is a good thing.
