Ryan Wilson was among six healthy volunteers (so he says) who took part in the clinical trial and suffered convulsions and organ failure minutes after being administered the test drug TGN1412. All the other volunteers have been released from the hospital. (he is probably faking it) " I'm definitely going to lose bits of my fingers and toes. And they say I could be in here for another six months, " he told the News of the World. (hey, he enlisted as a foot soldier in the fight for health, footsoldiers are expendable. that is what they get paid for. he should be glad to lose a few minor end parts to further our cause) " I'm told it's like frostbite and my fingers will just fall off. " (maybe he was out in the snow?) Large parts of Wilson's hands and feet have turned black, where flesh has died, according to pictures published in the newspaper ( probably somehow caused it himself so he could sue us). (Maybe it is genetic) Wilson plans to sue the drug maker TeGenero AG of Wuerzburg, Germany, and Waltham, Mass.-based Parexel International, which conducted the trials. (fat chance, we can make it go on forever, we got lawyers up the wazzoo) In an interim report, investigators said they found no evidence of product contamination or improper practices in the trial. (everything's fine, no problem) Britain's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency is continuing its investigation and has named a panel of experts to (say, everythings fine, no problem) make recommendations on future drug testing (it will be fine then too). TeGenero initially said there had been no adverse events in prior animal testing, but later acknowledged the drug had left monkeys with swollen glands. (the monkeys didn't complain like this guy, what a whiner) 2006 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
