Do a search on MPL adjuvant for verification of this. And encourage everyone to get Gary Matsumoto's book, Vaccine A www.Vaccine-A.com Although Gary's information is incredible and reads like an investigative novel, he has smallpox vaccine propaganda in his book -- citations from books printed in 1981 and 1984, when they were rewriting a lot of history. ~Ingri http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-glaxo1jul01,1,4146031.story?coll=la-he Glaxo Plans Five Vaccines Over Five Years The company will target markets that could reach $18 billion by 2010 and will double its flu shot production to supply the U.S. From Reuters GlaxoSmithKline aims to launch five major vaccines over the next five years targeting markets that could reach $18 billion by 2010, Europe's biggest drug maker said Thursday. The company also plans to double manufacturing capacity in Dresden, Germany, for its flu shot Fluarix to 80 million doses a year by 2008 in order to supply the U.S. market. Vaccines have long been viewed as a low-growth, low-price business, but Glaxo says this is changing with the arrival of new technologies. Some of its new vaccines will become pharmaceutical blockbusters with sales above $1 billion a year, the company says. " The global vaccines market is now poised for accelerated growth, " David Stout, Glaxo president of pharmaceutical operations, told reporters during a vaccines seminar in London. Most attention is focused on Cervarix, Glaxo's big new hope for preventing cervical cancer. It will compete with Merck & Co.'s experimental product Gardasil, which is further along in the process of getting to market. Cervarix has been touted by industry analysts as a potential $4-billion-a-year seller. Many analysts now expect Glaxo to seek approval from the Food and Drug Administration in 2007, although it might be able to apply in 2006 if clinical trials progress rapidly. Like Gardasil, the vaccine targets a sexually transmitted infection called human papillomavirus, which causes cervical cancer, the second-biggest cancer killer in women. Although Cervarix alone has the potential to transform Glaxo's vaccine business, the company also has high hopes for four other major new vaccines that are scheduled for launch by 2010. They include Rotarix, for preventing a common cause of severe diarrhea in children called rotavirus. Glaxo also is pursuing a vaccine for pneumococcal disease known as Streptorix as well as new vaccine combinations against meningitis and an improved flu vaccine. _____________________________ 30 Jun 2005 Glaxo SmithKline had a " Vaccine Day " today. It was a dog and pony show to educate their partners about their vaccine business and the very significant role that vaccines will play in the future of their company (their words). Here are some of their projections going out to 2010. total vaccine market - $18 Billion per year (yes billion with a B) strep vaccine market - $3.2 Billion per year meningitis vaccine market - $1.5 Billion per year If anyone doubts that vaccines are BIG BIG business and it's the dollars that drive decisions, rather than the health of the users, take another look at those numbers. Thimerosal and other preservatives aside, the havoc that the ever expanding vaccine schedule (and the drug companies will expand it to infinity if allowed to) wreaks on an immune system that evolved just fine on it's own for millions of years cannot be imagined and is probably far worse than even the most pessimistic of us could ever imagine. forwarded by Zeus Information Service Alternative Views on Health www.zeusinfoservice.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
