Congrads to Merck execs for destroying billions in sharholder value by peddling shit thats hazardous to your health. The payout may be exessive, but is death an acceptable 'side effect' for a medicine that's suppose to heal?
i agree. my motherinlaw says she hasnt had a painfree day since they pulled vioxx from her. she isnt concerned about a chance of a heart attack. she just wants to lose the pain. nothing else works. she is 76 so the slight risk of a heart attack doesnt worry her.Quote from PoundTheRock:
Don't be a fool. Millions of people chose to use Vioxx even with its known side effects for better quality of life. And yes, including the remote chance that they die...
Another white-trash jury stickin' it to those mean corporate sum'bitches (who give 'em jobs).
It's just a simple equation anyways:
Big jury verdicts = Lawyer's fees - corporate jobs
Plaintiff's attorney having an orgasm as verdict is read

Quote from jrlvnv:
drugs heal???? ha what a joke. Drugs mask disease while harming other areas of the body. The drug makers are there to make drugs to mask disease and to keep you taking them. When was the last time a drug cured something. Polio comes to my mind. There isn't a drug out there that doesn't have a side effect on another part of the body. I feel imho that this is the first of many lawsuits of all the drug companies.
Quote from jrlvnv:
your probebly one of the people that feels they need to take some kind of drug everyday to live. I have done the research and with your remark it shows you have a lot to learn about maturity and the drug companys. So instead of making mindless comments to me with no meaning what so ever, why don't you provide proof of your statement. A 253 million verdict made my point.
