The FDA is in a state of opprobrium anyway. If a new process produces dramatic results against inflammation, then the FDA will be under intense media pressure and medical community pressure to approve. The FDA could even decide that the only benefit of statin drugs was against inflammation and they come with a whole raft of bad side effects, they could now stop statin drugs and promote Vasogen instead for inflammation.

Who cares about the FDA?,...perhaps investors,... but then there are the rest of us that want effective cures. If efficacy, safety and a longer life is proved, do the rest of us care if the U.S. approves it or not. The drug process will probably be cheaper in Mexico and Canada if the U.S. ignores it.

Good thing Canada pushed through radioisotopes or we'd all be sucking on FDA sour lemons now.
