• wa11 St. Journal New Yor,,t, NY RO'ORM T1! FDA and Administration rules on drug sa ety. e many Amencans die from tutsafe drugs and foods. It rules on drug effectiveness. Yet it cannot act on drugs used safely and effec tively in Lutnpe for decades. This dooms thousands to unnecessary suffering and death. Why do such problems persist? The FDA bureaucracy locts up minds and paralyzes action. Too often prejudices against certain drug cntnpanies. or per- sonal and professional jealousies and con- flicts, hamper proper action. I tttgentty advtse Hillary Ciinton to: t t) fire the current FDA commissioner. Dr. David Kessler. all of whose actions seem politically motivated: (2) ask the attorney general to invesugate conflicts of interest that keep vital drugs from millions of victims - and make costs skytvcttet: (3) ask Congress to hold public heanngs at which experts could detstl FDA failings aad propose a basic reotgantuuon of the FDA.
