When it comes to their health, people put their trust in the products of many different pharmaceutical companies. What if a company you have trusted has done something unforgivable and disgusting? Bayer has done that with its hemophilia Factor 8.
Knowingly, Bayer who claims to protect your children’s health has released a medicine that has the potential to cause HIV.
What is Hemophilia Factor 8?
One of the most famous Bayer products is aspirin, but along with it, this company manufactures many other products. It manufactures everything from pesticides to medicines for hemophilia, also known as hemophilia factor 8.
In 1984, Bayer was involved in a scandal, in which several HIV-infected batches of medicines were traced back to it. Bayer became aware of this because there was an outbreak of HIV among children who suffer from hemophilia.
Bayer was unable to sell Factor 8 in the USA, so the FDA allowed the company to sell the HIV-infected medicine to Indonesia, Argentina, Malaysia, Japan, and Singapore.
What Are The Effects of This Factor 8?
Hemophilia showed how the division of Bayer, Cutter Biological shipped more than 100,000 batches of this medication, worth more than $4 million.
This is not the only thing that will shock you. The effects of these batches of medicine are even more shocking. The release of this HIV-infected medication infected tens of thousands and killed thousands of children and adults.
Thousands of innocent people were victims of this evil action, and no one was responsible for it.
When asked about this issue, Bayer responded that the decisions made nearly 20 years ago, were based on proven scientific information and were consistent with the regulations.
Another interpretation of this is, that Bayer, requested FDA to murder thousands of children, and the FDA gave this approval.
The NY Times reports that Dr. Harry M.Meyer Jr., the FDA’s regulator of blood products, asked for quiet solving of this issue without altering the medical community, Congress, and the public.
Regarding this matter, there were no charges against this company. Bayer still sells its Factor 8 medication.
