Pfizer gives Standford Medical School an unrestricted grant to develop continuing medical education...just as critics have wanted.
What is the response?
Let Arnold Relman and David Rothman (he who receives his dollars from George Soros) render judgment:
Relman: “But it’s just not a good idea for a profession that says it wants to be independent and trusted, a reliable source of information to the profession and the public about drugs, to take money from the drug company under any conditions.”
Rothman: I will also confess I am surprised Pfizer is doing it,” he added, “and I don’t know how many more times they will give money with no strings attached.” (As opposed to the tight strings attached to everything Soros gives to his sock puppets?)
So doctors who take unrestricted money for any reason under conditions from any company are inherently corrupt?
Too bad the NY TImes continues to give these extremists a platform -- without ask them to disclose their funding sources... as if that mattered.
