Is Boston Scientific using counterfeit material in vaginal mesh products?

Recently trending are allegations that Boston Scientific may knowingly be using counterfeit material sold by a notorious China-based counterfeiter in their vaginal mesh sling products, that they have not conducted appropriate tests using the new material and that they defrauded regulators.

According to the latest news it appears that the medical device maker, after losing its U.S. material source, may be part of a conspiracy to import second-rate, subpar polypropylene resin for use in the slings. Other defendants named in the Boston Scientific lawsuit are EMAI Plastic Raw Materials of Guangzhou, China, Proxy Biomedical Ltd of Ireland and Luxilon Industries based in Belgium.

Boston Scientific loudly denies any such allegations.

This allegation is deeply troubling for a number of reasons. Vaginal mesh slings were created with the intention of helping women deal with pelvic organ prolapse. To date, many horrific lawsuits have been filed by thousands of injured women.

Many women have had their lives turned upside down and live with severe pain, pelvic pain, organ perforation, bleeding, infection, pain during intercourse and urinary incontinence issues due to eroding vaginal mesh and have no hope of having the invasive, organ infesting sling completely removed.

The ethical question of a company knowingly using substandard materials in a product designed for implantation in the body looms large and raises sharp questions about the ethics of Boston Scientific. The ethics of a counterfeiter selling such below standard material are certainly questionable as well.

Should the allegations prove to be true and are verified, such a development would change the way vaginal mesh cases may be tried. Such evidence would be of significant interest to a judge and jury and likely tip the scales of justice in favor of even more plaintiffs. Boston sells at least $120 million of vaginal mesh a year. Over 55,000 woman yearly may have this questionable product implanted.

Special Consideration for Irish in the Immigration Bill?

admin — Fri, 17 May 2013 20:53:00 +0000

The history of Immigration in the USA goes right along the history of slavery, and can be described by one word: Discrimination. The Asians were not even allowed to enter, because Immigration was restricted to people “from Caucasian descent.”

In 1923, when Bhagat Singh tried to get Citizenship, claiming that he was “Caucasian” (Indians are Caucasians by race), the US Supreme Court ruled that Indians could not assimilate into the “white society”, that East Asians were barred from immigrating, and applied it retroactively, denaturalizing all Asians given the Citizenship previously.

Fast forward not even a 100 years and the Irish are claiming favoritism again in 2013. They claim its “hard” for people of Europe to immigrate and estimates that as many as 50,000 Irish people are currently living ILLEGALLY in the US. They complain because they are not included in the “Diversity” visa, a visa given by lottery to any High School graduate because there are few citizens of that country. Note India and China never were included in the diversity visa. People from there come on the basis of merit.

And just how will Ireland justify allowing more numbers to the Immigration quota? Because they have “political clout” with a lot of Senators. Senator Chuck Schumer is in their pocket. John McCain “works ” with them.

I have a note to Irish parents: why don’t you just have your children get the Bachelor’s Degree like the rest of us? And yes, the CIS favors a British or Irish Degree over Indian or Chinese Degree anyways.

We should end country quotas, end Diversity based on country of origin, end Xenophobia, and get immigration not by the color of our skin, but by the content of our brain and character.
