Pfizer acts to stop its drugs being used in lethal injections

I wasn’t going to post this as it is such an emotive subject but then….when has that ever stopped me!

As some of you may know I absolutely abhor capital punishment . It does not work as a deterrent. It is also untrue that the majority of people whose loved ones were the victims of capital crimes are staunch supporters of the death penalty. Thankfully it no longer applies to the UK but I am still delighted that Pfizer has come to this decision. We all know that large pharmaceutical companies are often notorious in their lack of basic morals so it really does speak volumes when one makes such a public stand.

Absolutely, PAWS

With this stand on the responsible use of drugs, Pfizer have shown how to be upright members of the pharmaceutical community.
