      I think it was Bayer who sent hiv infected products to Africa since they couldn’t sell them in the US.

      Even the nineties and beyond, if you think of the vaccine-causing-autism to-do and mad cow disease.

          https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2323045/ “Wakefield admits fabricating events when he took children’s blood samples”

          I suppose I wasn’t clear, but I was referring to the fella who first came out and said the MMR vaccine was linked to autism, which was fraudulent of course and there’s a good documentary about it, but I mentioned it specifically because he was taking children’s blood unethically. Mad cow disease is less relevant but it’s more broadly an example of unethical treatment leading to an epidemic.

            Thank you! I thought you were claiming “vaccines cause autism and mad cow disease.” If you can recall the title of the doc, please drop it, I’d love to see it, in due time.

            Thanks again.
