Another reason not to trust Big Pharma and Vaccinations

My friend told me how when she was a pharm rep she was told to lie/withhold information in order to sell an antibiotic.

In turn, the doctors that prescribed the drug had no idea about the side effect(it is a major side effect). Their patients would call and complain and the doctor would have no idea what was going on. The pts then get admitted to hospitals with symptoms of unknown etiology.....driving up healthcare costs.....

Talk me down. I get so frustrated by the system! :

SO, this is why I do not trust vaccinations.

That is disgusting, but to be expected. One of my good friend's works for a pharmaceutical company (her drugs are cancer drugs). I am dying to ask her if she has ever been told to lie or withhold info, but I don't know how well that would go over. I wish I had more balls!

I don't believe it. We should all blindly trust people who are trying to sell us drugs. don't you fall for infomercials? all people educated about science do :P
