From the same article:

<<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.>>

Looks like VVUS may be the sole product in some parts of the world for quite a while.

The audio link in that BBC article is also worthwhile:

news.bbc.co.uk

Mentions deaths and growing black market. An entire shipment was stolen in Venezuela. Also raises worries about blue vision, etc.

It's almost all old news to this thread, but it sounds so good to hear it coming from a BBC announcer.
