Ann: Firebrick Closes AAT Appeal, page-7

TGA is a hard nut to crack. Why are Australians denied access to great Australian pharmaceuticals but Pfizer walks in with its recent interest in Heparin antiviral nasal spray where a tea
m of Melbourne medics get about $5m grant from state govt to conduct phase 1 trials and the product used Heparin sulphate is exclusively made by Pfizer. Seems someone in Government needs to look at bias and find out of Pfizer Australia domains to Federal ALP over the last few years plus their funding of TGA (96% big pharma funding according to BMJ article by Demasi 2022) is influencing TGA decisions. John Skerritt quote during Covid 2021 about TGA waiting for a signal from Govt is interesting.
