Zurdo, these deaths may turn out to be unrelated to the use of Viagra, but given the hoopla around the drug, any future death would be given the same media treatment. I think we'll be given many "buying opportunities" in the next few months, coz there's bound to be a Viagra/nitrate death one of these days, if not in the U.S., then may be in the Middle East or Asia, where most are not getting the drug by prescription.

A report from the BBC:

Six die after taking impotence wonder drug [Or "Six died after taking dinner"]
news.bbc.co.uk

The European Medicines Evaluation Agency has yet to
give consent for Viagra to go on sale in Britain. Before
the latest scare, Pfizer had been confident that approval
would be granted by the autumn.


The news could delay the approval of Viagra in Europe and other parts of the world.
