Big Pharma Ignores Colloidal Silver, Says Taxpayers Must Fund Research Into New Antibiotic Drugs Or Risk Dying of Superbug Infections!
According to
this news article, Europe is in the grip of a massive superbug crisis
that shows no sign of abating.
At the same time, Big Pharma has purposely -- and callously -- cut back on
research and development into new antibiotic drugs to combat the superbug
crisis.
This has left the nations of the European Union in a life-threatening bind.
EU governments are now being forced to institute programs through which
European
taxpayers
will foot the bill for Big Pharma's research and development of new
antibiotic drugs.
Afterwards, the drug companies will be allowed to sell the drugs they've
developed on the taxpayer dime for massive profits.
So taxpayers foot the bill both ways.
They pay for the research and development of the new antibiotic drugs
through higher taxes, and then they pay for the new "wonder drugs" developed
at their expense.
As Andrew Witty, Chief Executive of the drug company GlaxoSmithKline said
about the new plan to have taxpayers foot the bill for the development of
new antibiotic drugs to fight the superbug crisis:
"The Commission's plans were a welcome step forward that could help bring
more antibiotics to market. Unfortunately, the current commercial model
doesn't stimulate the innovation needed in this area.
We need a fundamentally different approach and public-private
collaboration, with the sharing of information and funding, provides us
with a significant opportunity to reduce the hurdles in our way."
Translation:
"Make the taxpayers foot the bill for all of our research and development
costs, and we'll develop some new drugs to help combat the superbug crisis.
Otherwise, you can all eat shit and die if you get a superbug infection
because we're not going to develop any more drugs if we have to pay for the
research and development out of our own profits."
Folks, these big drug companies make
hundreds
of billions of dollars a year selling drugs at exorbitant prices
that cost them only
pennies
to produce.
And now they want the beleaguered taxpayers to foot the bill for all of
their research and development costs for new antibiotic drugs to fight
super-pathogens...
...or else they'll just sit back on their haunches and allow millions of
people worldwide to die from superbug infections each year!
Are you beginning to see
why
the European Union banned the sale of colloidal silver back in 2010?
With no alternative natural means of fighting superbug infections, the
taxpayers of the European Union now have no choice but pay Big Pharma
billions of dollars annually to develop new antibiotic drugs for them!
Some people say the bankers run the world. But I'll tell you what: There's
little doubt in my mind Big Pharma is right up there with them.
Coming to America!
And don't think the same thing won't happen here.
The very same propaganda campaign used in Europe to force the taxpayers to
pay Big Pharma's research and development costs for new antibiotic drugs is
already being implemented here in the U.S., too. In fact, the propaganda
campaign for it has been underway since last year.
"We're running out of antibiotic drugs," said Dr. Brad Spellberg of UCLA
Medical Center, an infectious disease expert. He says the pharmaceutical
companies have stopped making enough antibiotics because it's just "not
profitable."
Indeed, according to the Infectious Disease Society of America, as of 2010
only a mere five of the 13 biggest pharmaceutical companies are still even
considering developing new antibiotic drugs.
And according to an article in
Newsweek
magazine, the drug companies now claim profits are just not high
enough to justify the development of new antibiotic drugs, particularly when
compared to the money that can be made by developing drugs for chronic,
long-term diseases such as cancer, heart disease or even baldness:
"Medications that treat cancer or chronic conditions like diabetes, heart
disease, or even baldness are simply much more lucrative [than antibiotic
drugs].
That's because a single course of the most expensive antibiotics (linezolid
and daptomycin) runs just seven days and sells for $1,000 to $2,000, while a
single course of, say, any given cancer treatment runs for weeks to months
and costs from 10 to 20 times as much.
Chronic-disease medications, which a patient typically takes for the rest of
his or her life, yield even higher returns. It doesn't matter that bacterial
infections are infinitely more common than cancer or even heart disease;
antibiotics are still less profitable...
... The future will almost certainly be different. Antibiotics will cost
more and do less. They will also be less readily available than we are
accustomed to."
Ahhh...did they just say ya'll gonna die because we're not making enough
money off your stupid infections, but if you've got cancer, heart disease or
are going bald we've got you covered with expensive drugs you can take for
the rest of your life?
I think you read that right, my friend!
According to the book,
The Truth
About the Drug Companies: How They Deceive Us and What to Do About It,
by Marcia Angell, "Drug companies often decided to stop making important
drugs in order to free up capacity for drugs with bigger market potential."
Translation: It's not that the antibiotic drugs aren't profitable to
produce. It's that other drugs are much
more
profitable. And the drug companies would rather produce the more profitable
drugs, even though it means millions of lives will be lost as a consequence
of cutting back on the production of the less profitable drugs.
According to an article in
Time
magazine titled "The Desperate Need for New Antibiotics," David Payne, head
of GlaxoSmithKline's Antibacterial Discovery Performance Unit says
"incentives" would certainly help his research team, which is one of the few
left in major pharmaceutical firms that continue to develop new classes of
antibiotics.
"A lot of people don't appreciate that in big companies it's a pretty
competitive environment for funding for each of the therapeutic areas.
Incentives would offer a way for us to accelerate our program and increase
our probability of success."
Of course, "incentives" is the new code word for taxpayer funding. Mr. Payne
wants the government to provide taxpayer dollars as an "incentive" to
develop more antibiotic drugs. Otherwise, the death rate from the superbugs
is going to soar.
Why don't the drug companies simply fund the needed research out of the
hundreds of billions of dollars in profits they make each year from the sale
of their other prescription drugs?
Well, why
should
they, when they can simply stop producing new antibiotic drugs until death
rates from the super-pathogens skyrocket to the point that the governments
of the world are forced to start ponying up taxpayer money to fund the
research, instead?
Says a November 2010 article in the
New York
Times:
"While the notion of directly subsidizing drug companies may be politically
unpopular in many quarters, proponents say it is necessary to bridge the gap
between the high value that new antibiotics have for society and the low
returns they provide to drug companies."
Fear-based propaganda, my friends, pure and simple!
Indeed, with characteristic disingenuousness, Big Pharma with its hundreds
of billions of dollars in annual profits is actually
pleading
poverty in an effort to goad the government into using taxpayer
money to fund the development of new antibiotic drugs...
...which of course the drug companies will make additional billions of
dollars in profits from.
What About Colloidal
Silver?
Meanwhile, a growing body of largely ignored clinical research demonstrates
that a few
cents
worth of colloidal silver daily, properly administered, will generally cure
just about any superbug infection.
In fact, study
after study
after study
after study
after
study after study
after study
have demonstrated that silver kills drug-resistant super-pathogens.
This has actually been known since the 1970's, when Dr. Robert O. Becker,
M.D. of Syracuse Medical University began his pioneering research into the
infection-fighting qualities of electrically generated silver ions. At that
time, he wrote:
"All of the organisms that we tested were sensitive to the electrically
generated silver ion, including some that were resistant to all known
antibiotics...In no case were any undesirable side effects of the silver
treatment apparent."
-- Dr. Robert O. Becker,
M.D., Syracuse Medical University
And the simple fact that silver kills antibiotic-resistant microbes has been
re-confirmed time after time. As recently stated in a 2010 clinical study
published in the
World
Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology:
"Infections caused by drug-resistant microorganisms result in significant
increases in mortality, morbidity, and cost related to prolonged treatments.
The antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles against some
drug-resistant bacteria has been established...
Hence, we challenged different drug-resistant pathogens of clinical
importance (multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, ampicillin-resistant
Escherichia coli O157:H7 and erythromycin-resistant Streptococcus pyogenes)
with a suspension of silver nanoparticles.
By means of a luciferase-based assay, it was determined that silver
nanoparticles:
(1) inactivate a panel of drug-resistant and drug-susceptible bacteria (Gram
positive and Gram negative),
(2) exert their antibacterial activity through a bactericidal rather than
bacteriostatic mechanism, and
(3) inhibit the bacterial growth rate from the time of first contact between
the bacteria and the nanoparticles."
-- World J Microbiol
Biotechnol (2010) 26:615-621
What's more,
studies from BYU have demonstrated that simply adding colloidal silver
to an existing prescription antibiotic drug that has lost its effectiveness
against the superbugs, increases the efficacy of that drug manifold,
and
renders it effective against the superbugs once again!
So really, it appears there's no need to develop new antibiotic drugs to
fight the superpathogens. Just add a little bit of colloidal silver to the
existing drugs, and they become
supercharged!
This too has been repeatedly documented by other researchers. The most
recent study was conducted by clinical researchers at the Andalusian Center
for Molecular Biology & Regenerative Medicine and University of Seville at
Seville, Spain:
"Recently, due to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and the use
limitations of antibiotics that can cause serious diseases and is an
important public health problem (Furuya & Lowy, 2006), the synergetic
effect of silver nanoparticles with antibiotics has been studied combinating
silver nanoparticles with different antibiotics like ampicillin, kanamycin,
erythromycin and chloramphenicol against gram positive and gram negative
bacteria.
The antibacterial activities of these
antibiotics increase in the presence of silver nanoparticles against gram
positive and gram negative bacteria determined by the disk diffusion method.
...The antibiotic molecules contain many active groups such as hydroxyl and
amino groups, which reacts easily with silver nanoparticles by chelation,
for this reason, the synergistic effect may be caused by the bonding
reaction with antibiotic and silver nanoparticles."

Want more evidence that antimicrobial silver is the clear solution to the
growing super-pathogen crisis. Here are just a few insightful articles you
might want to read:
Meanwhile, the drug companies continue to ignore silver-based antimicrobials
as the only viable,
immediate
solution to the ever-growing crisis of super-pathogens.
And why?
Clearly, it's because they're
not
looking for a quick, safe and effective solution to the millions of deaths
per year caused by the super-pathogens worldwide.
Instead, they're pushing the governments of the world to tap deeper into the
taxpayer's pocketbooks to pay for research and development into new classes
of antibiotic drugs.
And of course, because the pathogens become resistant to most new drugs
within a matter of months or years, the taxpayer-funded research and
development of new drugs will be
a
never-ending source of revenue for Big Pharma.
The bottom line is that when the taxpayers have to foot the bill for the
R&D, then new antibiotic drugs will be developed.
And these new drugs will represent billions upon billions of dollars in
pure
profits for Big Pharma, because they won't have to pay for their
own research and development.
Can You See The
Handwriting On the Wall?
What does this tell you?
Well, if you're intelligent, it should tell you to start stocking up on
colloidal silver, because the drug companies are about to use the same
blackmail tactic here in the U.S. they just finished using in the EU.
This means the super-pathogen crisis is going to get a lot worse here,
first. That's the
leverage
the big pharmaceutical companies intend to use to force the government to
start providing taxpayer money to fund their research into the development
of new antibiotics.
So you'll want to have plenty of this powerful, infection-fighting elixir
available in the interim.
Of course, colloidal silver is costly, with tiny four-ounce bottles going
for as much as $30 apiece in health food stores.
Therefore, you might want to consider obtaining a new
Micro-Particle Colloidal
Silver Generator so you can make all of the high-quality colloidal
silver you could ever need for just a few
pennies per one-quart batch, any time you need it to protect
yourself and your family.
To learn how easy it is to start making your own high-quality micro-particle
colloidal silver, just click the link above.
Or, check out this link
to learn how thousands of experienced colloidal silver users are already
curing their own infections with high-quality, homemade micro-particle
colloidal silver.
Frankly, making your own high-quality micro-particle colloidal silver the
simplest and most effective way in the world to tell Big Pharma where to
shove it, while protecting yourself and your family from infection and
disease at the same time.
The time has clearly come for people to take their health and well-being
into their own hands, and tell the big drug companies to pound sand.
Owning the means of colloidal silver production is one of the most effective
ways you can do that.
