From Guru's post:<BR/>"key conclusions are borrowed, without acknowledgement, from a paper funded through a U.K.-based think-tank by Interpat, an association of major multinational pharmaceutical companies."<BR/><BR/>Corporate medicine seems to have already entered India ( In Australia, under Howard, medicare is loosing strength) and it seems to be some thing to be careful about.

P-ists are regarded with scorn and pity. P-ism seems to be an absolute crime with no gradations. Even killing another human being comes with gradations, such as culpable homicide, manslaughter, premeditated murder, etc., but P-ism does not enjoy any such luxury. How about that?Ananthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12974808252913561726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-83545431611331957622007-02-13T07:32:00.000+05:302007-02-13T07:32:00.000+05:30Abi FYIhttp://www.dklevine.com/papers/ip.ch.9.m100...Abi FYI<BR/><BR/>http://www.dklevine.com/papers/ip.ch.9.m1004.pdfAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-20583372102329403042007-02-13T07:04:00.000+05:302007-02-13T07:04:00.000+05:30Just wait, Michael Moore is enterung the picture:h...Just wait, Michael Moore is enterung the picture:<BR/>http://www.newstarget.com/020085.htmlgaddeswaruphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16509075029154476375noreply@blogger.com
