I wasn't saying anyone was holding Merck back. The Doctor at John Hopkins was the one who said it, not me.
Let me refresh your memory with Dr. Makarys words during the interview with Brian Kilmead from Fox News in regards to Merck and the FDA:
"Well, they’ve got to be very careful with the FDA," Makary responded. "If you do something out of line with what they want you could offend them and the FDA is vindictive and they will hold up authorizations and approvals.”
