Hopefully when they review the vapeing deeming they see that it matches the criteria for repeal.
In sweeping move, Trump puts regulation monitors in U.S. agencies
I just read an article about an outfit called Precision Health Economics. It’s a crew of academic hired guns who specialize in doing “research” for the drug industry. Mostly along the lines of studies justifying the high price of drugs in the US. I don’t think they do actual research into drug effectiveness, more like analysis of the economic situation around drugs, done by professors and doctors, and always finding in favor of the BP companies who hire them. They seem to be just a lobbying support group.
"Precision Health Economics may be well-positioned to influence the Trump administration. Tomas Philipson, an economist at the University of Chicago and the third co-founder of Precision Health Economics, reportedly served briefly as a senior healthcare adviser for the Trump transition team. He did not respond to requests for comment.
Scott Gottlieb, M.D., reported to be a candidate for commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, is a clinical assistant professor at New York University School of Medicine and a former “academic affiliate” of Precision Health Economics, according to its website."
I don’t know if Gottlieb is still in the running for FDA Commissioner. He was until recently.
We’ve talked here about the effect of money on research. There aren’t many cases where the process is this blatant. So a BP lobbyist is in line to help decide the future of
vaping. Somehow I don't think Dr Gottlieb will see Deeming as a good regulation to get rid of.
