Right to Try
- Thread starter UCFWayne
- Start date
despite the fact that literally no one on the left ever says anything remotely like this on here.
Another legislative achievement for this Congress and President.
Of the few, Libertarian things Trump has done, this is one of the bigger ones. Cut the FDA out-of-the-loop. The patient still has ultimate say. I'm against the government having any say, once it passes FDA phase 1.
Ironically the FDA needs to be more focused on medical device implants than drugs and procedures. Now those could use more regulation! This actually needs less regulation.
Maybe I should call them "Big Implant"?

I'm more concerned with the under-regulated industry of medical device implants than "Big Pharma."

Do NOT mess with big implants. You will start a civil war for sure.
He he he. In all seriousness, the Big Pharma argument (which is valid at points) has really distracted from the severely under-regulated "Big Implant" industry. Congress hasn't addressed it because a lot of bio-tech research is in this area and some serious money.
This may be the most important thing that has been done in the last 2 years. Now if they would just address how competing manufacturers have to thread a needle if they want to put out a similar drug/device without getting sued then I'd be ecstatic.
Indeed. But we're talking about a major shift in the patent system as well. That's been a hard sell to date, especially for medicine.
My ex-wife had big implants. Pretty sure every guy in town got to mess with them
Okay, how about "Big Device"? No, that won't work either ...
"Big Mesh"?
"Big Socket?"
Sigh ... just going to lose here.

Do you have any pictures of these big implants you are talking about?
If we are being inclusive, better ask for pictures of these big devices as well.
Before bq obliges, I want to request we not post any pictures of big devices.
I originally typed Trump did something right but I couldn't get my finger to click the reply button.
