Do you know the story of Jacques Poirier?

It did not make the headlines of the commercial media, and that however dates from 2003!

Today, 59 years old, this whistleblower, veterinarian and pasteur by training, former national expert with the AFSSA (French Food Safety Agency), former Managing Director of AVENTIS-PHARMA (integrated today in the SANOFI-AVENTIS group) was dismissed in 2003 for refusing to endorse certain dubious practices concerning the manufacture of enoxaparin, a heparin used in the manufacture of anti-coagulant drugs (LOVENOX / CLEXANE), the number of which 'annual business amounts to more than 3 billion Euros.

You can also support him with a petition.

Et he is not the only one in France, at least for the recognized.

Another case from a few weeks ago and much more "economical": in Belgium (near Liège I believe) a manager of a lidl wanted to give his employees food products which were just "expired" (still therefore largely consumable) .

It didn't work at all at the parent company ... it cleared fissa, borderline if it didn't have a trial ...

Like what econology for all is not yet for tomorrow ...

Indeed; fiscally an expired product must be destroyed ... and eating or consuming it is not considered as tax destruction ...

much more "economical"


Note that the manufacture of heparin is precisely the use of slaughterhouse waste.

Otherwise, it also echoes discussions about what forum, where some claimed that, forever, the financial interests of industry did not prevail over the interests of citizens ...

Besides, he was right long before and no one in the United States !!
Even our drugs are made with Chinese shit with insufficient controls to protect us !!
Those who realize this are kicked out and unemployed !!
So impossible to trust our medicines !!

Five years later (2008), the United States and Germany recorded nearly a hundred deaths and more than 800 allergic-type shocks in patients, following the intravenous administration of a heparin marketed by the American laboratory BAXTER. After investigation, it turned out that the manufacturing lots of the anti-coagulant in question all came from China. They all contained adulterated substance, fraudulently added to " boost the effects of heparin: chondroitin sulfate.. A few days later, the French Health Products Safety Agency (AFSSAPS) officially recognized that 11 commercial batches of enoxaparin (LOVENOX from SANOFI-AVENTIS) were also contaminated with the same substance.
These accidents (and perhaps others to come) could have been avoided if we had listened to the whistleblower Jacques Poirier!
