would you let this guy
serve you an egg roll?
it gets worse. last week, we gave the “hey abbott award” to
the bum that runs merck because he has been churning out a deadly pill called
vioxx.
this week we give the award to howard pien
who is the head of a creepy company called chiron pharmaceuticals.
howie used to work for merck and that is
where he probably learned how to do things that endanger the public.
this year millions of americans in mortal
danger will not be able to get their flu shots thanks to the most honorable
howard pien. his company was churning
out a pill that was dangerous and thanks to the alertness of authorities in the
poor howie.
he thought he was being clever.
even though his company is located in
are there no americans in
thanks to master pien, most elderly people
and most mothers of young children who should be getting the flu shot are not
going to be getting it. they are, to say
the least, sick with worry about what is about to happen.
what is about to happen is that thousands
of people throughout the
last week, we thought that raymond gilmartin,
the ceo of merck, was the worst sleaze.
lucky ray, he has now been replaced by
howard pien, son of ray…like in son of frankenstein.
how much do you want to bet that every
member of howard pien’s family gets a safe flu shot this season? that even includes
the waiters at his nearest take out restaurant.
