This just in: Botulism causes Botulism... - SDGuy - 02-09-2008
This is news??
People have themselves injected with Botulism Toxin, then are surprised when they get symptoms very much like ... (insert drumroll)...Botulism!!
"Botulinum toxin injections, best-known for smoothing wrinkles, have been linked to cases of serious adverse reactions, including death, the Food and Drug Administration announced Friday...The reactions resembled naturally occurring botulism, a rare but potentially deadly paralyzing illness caused by botulinum toxin"

I went to school with one of the Mortis twins. He always seemed a little stiff to me.

Interesting article. Business as usual if you read the whole thing: the FDA plays corporate whore yet again. On adding a very clear warning to the product:
>Adding a black box is "something to be considered," Katz said, "but it's too premature" to recommend one now.
180 serious reactions, including 16 DEATHS, 25% of which were in children, are not enough to add a warning let alone take the product off the market. How do these guys sleep at night.
There's a job waiting at one of these companies for this guy Katz, I can guarantee you that.
