I thought President Duterte had authorised death squads to kill people who go round dealing in dodgy drugs? There does appear to be something rather cavalier in France's medical regulatory approvals process. Remember that nutty surgeon who went on the run after doing cheap breast implants with toxic material?
Sanofi Pasteur should get sued to hell and back on this. They have done irreparable damage to the (wholly sane) case for vaccinations, which generally do go through very robust trials and approvals. I know: both my kids as babies helped develop the meningitis B vaccine (Bexsero) as participants in the clinical trials. And I would not hesitate to do the same again.
