Friend,
Pfizer and other big pharmaceutical corporations are fueling the rise of drug-resistant superbugs that could kill millions.
That's the revelation of a new report and months of behind-the-scenes digging into big pharma's murky supply chain. The report shows that Pfizer is putting its profits ahead of our health, by buying cheap antibiotics from dangerous factories in China with a string of serious environmental and safety violations.
These factories are dumping raw antibiotic waste straight into rivers and waterways, creating the perfect breeding ground for antibiotic-resistant superbugs. As these superbugs spread globally, the World Health Organization is already sounding the alarm. The UK's Chief Medical Officer has called antibiotic resistance a "catastrophic threat" that could set modern health care back 200 years, and kill millions globally.
Can you join me and demand that big pharma companies clean up their act?
