 | | David Graham, who is being harassed by his superiors at the agency and was barred from presenting his research was finally allowed to do so after intervention by Senator Grassley, has essentially argued very convincingly that there is no real value in having Cox-2 drugs like Vioxx (since recalled), Celebrex, and Bextra on the market. |
 | | Graham, with Yale Medical School and John Hopkins on his resume, has made himself highly unpopular among pharmaceutical firms like Merck and Pfizer and their cronies inside the FDA by exposing the cozy relationship between the drug companies, the politicians in Washington, and the top brass at the FDA. |
