Bayer, the drug company was under fire when in 2003 it was found internal documents of them knowingly selling tainted drugs in 1980's with HIV and Hepatitis C. The drugs (vaccines) was called Factor VIII and Factor IX. It was intended for Hemophiliacs. A News reporter stated that "Bayer positively, absolutely knew" Mike said. The bizarre thing about this was that the FDA knew, and let it happened. This is not the only action of inhumanly thing Bayer did in the last 100 years.
Hepatitis C: Is when your liver starts to swell up.
Hemophiliacs: Is when your blood doesn't cloth after a cut.
When the FDA found out that the drugs were tainted with HIV and Hepatitis they told Bayer, that they can't sell those products here in the U.S. They ask themselves " What do we do with millions of dollars worth of products? Well what Bayer did is they took the products off the shelf's of the U.S and sold them over seas. Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Canada just to name a few.I'm sure by now you're asking yourself "Why would they do that" Well here is where it gets more inhumanly, because they didn't want to take a loss they still wanted to make profit from it. Yet again the FDA let it all happened.
How were the drugs infected with Aids well rumors go they received plasma from jail inmates from Arkansas Prison, and other sources. They did not follow regulations by avoiding to receive plasma from people with history with Hepatitis, and other viruses. At the time they did not know how to extract the Aids from Plasma, but that shouldn't be a excuse for it. Think about it out of 10,000 or more who donated plasma, don't you think they can be at least one person infected? Yeah I though so, worst part they kept it all together. So, maybe it could of spread and multiplied ( I'm sure it did).
Here are some estimates: from 2001 to 2006
Final Thought is, ask yourself "How many had relationships after they were infected? And those who had sexual relationship with someone infected, had another sexual relationship after that?How many had continue with their life's and had a family? How many had a crazy night while being infected? How many more_______________ whatever it can be, spread the disease not knowing they were infected due to Bayer's actions and FDA's good to go in other countries ? How many people died from this, Most important is "Are YOU going to support this company by buying their product? only you cant stop this from happening again? By making them go broke. Oh wait just a friendly reminder, the ingrediente use in the gas to kill Jews in the concentration camps in WWII is a ingrediente in some of their products that are used now.
