Come è possibile che personaggi come Girolamo Sirchia abbiano la possibilità di mentire così spudoratamente al grande pubblico? Ci domandiamo che valore abbia il suo CV alla luce di queste inaudite dichiarazioni.
Inoltre, chi intervista questi personaggi il suo mestiere lo conosce? Fact checking, questo sconosciuto al giornalismo italiano. C'e' da rimanere basiti per la preoccupazione di Sirchia sulle speculazioni economiche che tenta di affibbiare al possibile mercato della cannabis. Ci piacerebbe che questo suo spirito da "indagatore dell'incubo" lo mettesse a disposizione per una approfondita analisi delle nefandezze dell'industria farmaceutica, compresi gli immensi conflitti di interesse che la circondano, dalle pubblicazione delle ricerche scientifiche, fino alla realizzazione di nuovi farmaci.
Ricordiamo che queste dichiarazioni, insostenibili sotto ogni profilo, giungono dopo il tentativo dei media di associare la "sperimentazione Francese" a delle morti per cannabis, notizia prontamente smentita dallo stesso Ministro della Salute francese, ma che ha avuto ugualmente eco nei media italiani.
Sirchia: "Credo che la cannabis stia ripercorrendo il cammino del tabacco: c'è chi ha interesse a introdurla sul mercato perché ci guadagna e si stanno inventando dati scientifici per farci credere che sia un elemento indispensabile alla medicina, dato assolutamente non veritiero". Lo ha detto l'ex ministro della Salute, Girolamo Sirchia, a margine di un evento sulla sanità in Lombardia. "C'è chi ha guadagnato e guadagna sul tabacco - ha aggiunto - e c'è chi vuole guadagnare sulla cannabis. Sta alla nostra intelligenza resistere e far capire ai giovani che l'indipendenza e l'autonomia sono i grandi valori dell'uomo, non fare i pecoroni e seguire usanze che ci vengono imposte dalla pubblicità".
Uh, davvero, Sig. Ex Primo Ministro della Salute?
Prego, si accomodi.

...why big pharmaceutical companies do not want to hear about this:
"The cancer market expanded by 18.9% in 2004, with the highest growth rates occurring in the antineoplastics class of drugs. This class is forecast to become an even more important driving force behind the market, which is estimated to be valued at $43bn in 2005 and $69bn in 2010." http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reportinfo.asp?report_id=310874&t=e&cat_id
new anti-cancer drug Herceptin "could open up a worldwide market worth more than £265m a year" http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2010/aug/20/price-cancer-drug-herceptin
"anticancer drugs account for global sales of around $50 billion", while "in 2006, global spending on prescription drugs topped $643 billion". http://www.contractpharma.com/articles/2009/10/anticancer-drugs
Big Pharma's Political Contributions amount to over $150, according to the Washington Post: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/graphic/2009/01/08/GR2009010800559.html
do you want to make lots of money? easy, just invest on the cancer market (and then spread as much refeer madness as you can -never let a plant get in the way of a big fat bonus)
