Two Names I will Never Forget
Maha Hussain and Howard Scher. Both are doctors. As a doctor you take the Hippocrates Oath to ensure you are an ethical doctor. Within the oath it states,
“In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction…”
‘In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patient’. The house in this case is the FDA, and the doctors are those mentioned above. (I will not even get into the second part of the quote as serious allegations can be made.)
By delaying a treatment that has NO safety risk, and substancial evidence of efficacy I ask this to the two doctors, “How the hell are you entering the house for the good of your patients?!?”
Again, Provenge does not prevent the use of chemo. The treatment can be used with Chemo to potentially maximize patient ability to fight PC. So I ask the doctors, “Do you remember the oath you took?”
