OF isn't calling for storming the Bastille, he's calling for congressional investigations when the worst is over. That seems pretty level-headed to me.
An interesting set of quotes at the end of the article:
"Looking back, Dr. Chu said she understood why the regulations that stymied the flu study’s efforts for weeks existed. “Those protections are in place for a reason,” she said. “You want to protect human subjects. You want to do things in an ethical way.”
The frustration, she said, was how long it took to cut through red tape to try to save lives in an outbreak that had the potential to explode in Washington State and spread in many other regions. “I don’t think people knew that back then,” she said. “We know it now.”"
Guess we can blame Kennedy, Kassebaum and Clinton for HIPAA and the patients' privacy it requires.
Free Phogge!!!! And no, crimson doesn't refer to the Tide.
