RSB Interviews Pharmaceutical Insider

As many of you know, I've posted information about pharmaceutical insider John Virapen PhD whose marketing duties required him to bribe officials into authorizing the distribution and sale of deadly or useless drugs to unsuspecting citizens. In what may be his worst example, his bribery of a Swedish professor resulted in the release and distribution of Prozac which was widely understood to cause suicidal ideation and depression.

Swedish prosecutors granted Virapen immunity for his cooperation.

Once released in Sweden, Virapen and other marketers (often called researchers) pressured government officials around the world to deliver Prozac and other "lifesaving" SSRI's to their populations. This resulted in multi-billion dollar profits at the expense of millions of people around the world who now suffer from the addiction, injury and death that those drugs caused.

You can hear Robert Scott Bell's interview of Dr. Virapen at this link.
