Boehringer Ingelheim, a drug manufacturer, has come under fire for failing to report safety information to drug regulators in the United Kingdom and United States, according to recent reports.

As articles in the BMJ have suggested, the company may have knowingly lied about the safety of one of its bestselling drugs. The drug, Pradaxa, is a medication available through prescription that purports to reduce the risks of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation, a heart rhythm disorder associated with fainting, chest pain, palpitations and chronic heart failure.

Praxada was approved by the Food and Drug Authority in the United States in 2010, and of the main advantages it had over its competitors is that it does not require frequent blood plasma monitoring, which is needed by most other drugs that treat the ailment.

BloodViscosityHowever, as reported in the BMJ, many patients have started suffering from bleeding problems which are said to be caused by the drug. The BMJ articles have also insinuated that the taking of Pradaxa was one of the only common factors between each of the patients, aside from the original ailment which needed treatment. According to BMJ’s investigations editor, Deborah Cohen:

“Boehringer Ingelheim, the maker of dabigatran [Praxada], has failed to share with regulators information about the potential benefits of monitoring anticoagulant activity and adjusting the dose to make sure the drug is working as safely and effectively as possible.”

Although evidence purports to show the contrary, Boehringer Ingelheim has maintained that the drug is safe, going so far as to say that:

“Our company has provided regulators with the complete data set and analyses of clinical evidence demonstrating the efficacy and safety profile of Pradaxa, and FDA and European Medicines Agency (EMA) have affirmed RE-LY’s conclusions and stated that Pradaxa provides an important health benefit when used as directed.

Police in North California have issued a arrest warrant for Eduardo Rosas Cruz, a homeless man who was diagnosed with TB earlier this week, but refused treatment. According to reports, the warrant was issued because police fear that the particular strain of TB which Cruz was diagnosed with may be highly contagious. Because of this, it is thought that he is a potential threat to others.

Cruz was diagnosed with TB back in March at the San Jaoquin General Hospital complaining of a severe cough, high fever and a shortness of breath. After he was diagnosed, he was told to stay in a particular motel, where medication would be delivered, and a nurse would watch him take it.

However, once he left the hospital, he was never seen by the hospital staff again. Medical officials then asked prosecutors to issue a warrant for Cruz’s arrest, as he is currently considered as on the run, and he can be seen as a threat to public safety. It has also been reported that he is from a part of Mexico that is known for its drug-resistant strain of TB.

Medical officials have also said that he is a drug user who is known for abusing Crack Cocaine and Methamphetamines, which not only intensify the onset of TB, but are also known for developing the disease into a drug resistant form if the users TB hasn’t already developed into a drug resistant strain.

San Joaquin County Deputy District Attorney Stephen Taylor told BBC News that:

“We’re interested in this guy because he broke the orders of the health officer. He could be in a homeless shelter. He could be around the corner from the courthouse. We don’t know.”

According to some reports, over nine million people were infected with TB in 2012, which resulted in over one million deaths.

A survey shows that 2010 health law makes insurance affordable for people. This research is conducted by Baker’s institutes leading health economics experts. They also added that they cannot say anything about how much percentage will increase in next year. It is certainly rely upon the results of the people who purchased it this year.

Vivian Ho, the Baker Institute’s health economics chair and a Rice University economics professor, gave a presentation to around 200 people in which he said that 85 percent people who bought treatment under the health insurance are qualified for subsidies The total number of buyers of this health insurance is 8 million. Approximately 733,500 people of Texas purchased market place coverage.

Most of the people are buying insurance from the market place because it gives them a tax credit which makes their health insurance quite cheaper. On the other hand, when the subsidy is added to their health insurance it makes it $82 more expensive as compare to the market one. Therefore, it is extremely essential to ban these tax credits.

A research has proved that this health insurance policy helps in the decrease of uninsured rate of country which was 18 percent previous year and now it is 15.9 percent only in the first quarter.

A recent study is published in New England Journal of Medicine confirmed that 10 million people around the country signed up for this coverage.

Bill Gates told in one of his most recent interviews that Nigeria will have zero cases of polio in 2015 and in 2018, it will be listed in the names of countries free from Polio disease.

Presently, Bill Gates runs an organization named as The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The objective of this organization is to completely wipe the world from polio disease.  Pakistan, Afghanistan and Nigeria are those three countries in which this Virus is still wide spread.

 

Furthermore, he said that the truth is that this year in Nigeria their team will have to confront some major challenges that consist of distraction which will caused by the forthcoming election, violence in Boko Haram. Lately, an extremist group is continuously targeting Polio teams. Regardless of all these brutal facts, this year Nigeria reported very few Polio cases therefore, they are not expecting any case next year. If there will be not a single case turned up in next three years then Nigeria will declared as Polio free state in 2018.

Once the world is clear from this horrible disease – Polio, then Bill Gates has some other high profile heath programs and Malaria is one of them.  A mosquito cause this ailment and takes life of approximately 60,000 people a year. Majority of deaths are happen in Africa.
