I starten af 2021 var der et utal af Tweets, der viste at DK lå på 3.-4. pladsen i “vaccinationskapløbet”. De opgørelser er nu helt forsvundet. DK ligger nu nummer 48.....Kan der være en sammenhæng? 😎

10 out of 11 people on an FDA advisory panel found "not enough evidence" to support approval of Biogen's Alzheimer's drug. The 11th panellist was “uncertain.” Yet, the U.S. FDA overruled the advice & approved the drug anyway, sparking a resignation. statnews.com/2021/06/08/fda…
