What if the guy lost his sight from contaminated eye drops BUT then there was some sort of nuclear apocalypse and he was wandering around in the waste lands with a Braille bible, some swords, a 1911 and some cat grease. Would you watch that?

I would watch a movie about a man who loses his eyes to contaminated eye drops and then takes revenge on big pharma using the martial arts skills he learned while recovering in the remote forests of Japan.

Blind Vengeance. They're going to pay, and he'll see to it personally. Coming soon to Netflix.

Your tears contain a compound called Lysozyme which is highly anti-bacterial. Its part of your natural immunity. Without lysozyme your eyes would rapidly become infected with something, probably at birth.

Its strange the eye drops could cause such a severe reaction. Wonder if its related to the jab?

How can it be more cost effective to ship it half way around the world instead of just making it in the US? Americas obsession with saving a few pennies on every purchase, and all of the companies that enable it, is absurd.

It wont cost the consumer too much more. The higher ups will only be able to afford 3 yachts instead of 5 though

Yep.

A good friend works for the FDA and visits a lot of pharma companies in India and China for compliance.
How many fail inspections?

Not sure. He has commented on the poor conditions of the manufacturing facilities in China.

Given that almost all American pharmaceuticals are made in China and India, where do you get yours from?

There was a guy that I met at a gun show years ago when I bought an M1 Garand and he was big into service rifle shooting. He helped me diagnose an M1 that I had that I was having problems with and helped me fix it with his massive stash of parts. He was getting into his late 50s and he had Lasik done and they screwed it up so bad that he was declared legally blind

6 months after the surgery he killed himself.

He was a fantastic guy and he really taught me a lot about maintaining and shooting my m1's and he was very generous with his knowledge and even his stash of spare parts. And I miss talking to him and meeting him at the range

Somebody recently showed vid from India of soft drink production.  That's all I needed to see.

Jesus Christ.   And here I was using eyedrops from the dollar store, and random old bottles from 5-10 years ago.    

Arfcom taught me today, to protect my million dollar eyes.

And one more thing to be terrified of.

Ever see them bathing in the Ganges river? They piss, poop, vomit, wash and throw dead bodies in it. Drink from it, splash their face with it and soak in it. But no infections.

The homeboy Indians build up an immunity to all the pathogens in their shifty country. BUT, If they move away and adjust to Western way of life of not shitting in the street. They too get sick AF and lose 15 pounds to dysentery when they go back home.

I doubt there isn't a strategy in place. Corp can fie appeals to eternity & bleed the plaintiff, or file bankruptcy & open under a different name. Happens all the time. No moral compass required.

Like the brain, the eye is an immunologically protected space that doesn't have the same inflammation responses as the rest of the body to protect the nerves and keep pressures low.  Consequentially, these area are more vulnerable to infection.  One of the few things I recall from Dr. McLeod's immunology course.
