Biotech Values

"On the legislation we'll introduce later today, there are some gaps in it and done so intentionally," said Dodd at a press conference earlier Tuesday. "There are no gaps in our determination, in my determination and that of my colleagues to have a public option, to have something done with the pay or play and deal with the follow on biologics. But I left those areas open for discussion, not because they're open for some sort of decision about whether or not we ought to move in that direction. But I want my Republican colleagues to know, I want their ideas, I want to hear what they have to say. This is a bill, it's an opening step."


It struck me as quite significant that Sen. Dodd, highest ranking Democrat on the Committe next to Ted Kennedy, would put "follow on biologics" in the same class of importance as the "pblic option" and "pay or play" provisions.
