Excellent examples of risk assessment and management, bag. Thanks for the support. lol

In case you missed the point of my post entirely, I will try to clarify it.

The present hysteria in regards to adverse drug reactions is the issue that cannot be resolved, not the diseases themselves.

There will always be hard choices to make, people willing to make them, and hysterical nitwits who will condemn those choices. That is an unresolvable facet of human nature.

Emotion and reason are polar opposites.

As I have shown by example (aircraft and auto) and you have confirmed (flu, polio and smallpox countermeasures), risk management will always be with us. The ignorant among us will continue to make emotional fodder out of the fallout.

While the present hysteria may offer some leverage in advancing a reasonable advance toward drug classifiers, it is nevertheless based on ignorance and hypocricy.
