Propelled
by an increase in prescription narcotic overdoses, drug deaths now
outnumber traffic fatalities in the United States, a Times analysis of
government data has found.
Drugs exceeded motor vehicle accidents
as a cause of death in 2009, killing at least 37,485 people nationwide,
according to preliminary data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention.
While most major causes of preventable death are declining, drugs are
an exception. The death toll has doubled in the last decade, now
claiming a life every 14 minutes. By contrast, traffic accidents have
been dropping for decades because of huge investments in auto safety.

Burzynski, the Movie is
the story of a medical doctor and Ph.D biochemist named Dr. Stanislaw
Burzynski who won the largest, and possibly the most convoluted and
intriguing legal battle against the Food & Drug Administration in
American history.
His
victorious battles with the United States government were centered
around Dr. Burzynski's gene-targeted cancer medicines he discovered in
the 1970's called Antineoplastons, which have currently completed Phase
II FDA-supervised clinical trials in 2009 and could begin the final phase of FDA testing in 2011–barring the ability to raise the required $300 million to fund the final phase of FDA clinical trials.
When
Antineoplastons are approved, it will mark the first time in history a
single scientist, not a pharmaceutical company, will hold the exclusive
patent and distribution rights on a paradigm-shifting medical
breakthrough.
Antineoplastons
are responsible for curing some of the most incurable forms of terminal
cancer. Various cancer survivors are presented in the film who chose
these medicines instead of surgery, chemotherapy or radiation - with
full disclosure of medical records to support their diagnosis and
recovery - as well as systematic (non-anecdotal) FDA-supervised clinical
trial data comparing Antineoplastons to other available
treatments—which is published within the peer-reviewed medical
literature.
One form of cancer - diffuse, intrinsic,
childhood brainstem glioma has never before been cured in any
scientifically controlled clinical trial in the history of medicine.
Antineoplastons hold the first cures in history - dozens of them. [ANP - PubMed 2003] [ANP - PubMed 2006] [ANP - Cancer Therapy 2007] [Rad & other - PubMed 2008] [Chemo/Rad - PubMed 2005]
This documentary takes the audience through the
treacherous, yet victorious, 14-year journey both Dr. Burzynski and his
patients have had to endure in order to obtain FDA-approved clinical
trials of Antineoplastons.
Dr.
Burzynski resides and practices medicine in Houston, Texas. He was able
to initially produce and administer his discovery without FDA-approval
from 1977-1995 because the state of Texas at this time did not require
that Texas physicians be required to adhere to Federal law in this
situation. This law has since been changed.
As
with anything that changes current-day paradigms, Burzynski's ability
to successfully treat incurable cancer with such consistency has baffled
the industry. Ironically, this fact had prompted numerous
investigations by the Texas Medical Board, who relentlessly took Dr.
Burzynski as high as the state supreme court in their failed attempt to
halt his practices.
Likewise,
the Food and Drug Administration engaged in four Federal Grand Juries
spanning over a decade attempting to indict Dr. Burzynski, all of which
ended in no finding of fault on his behalf. Finally, Dr. Burzynski was
indicted in their 5th Grand Jury in 1995, resulting in two federal
trials and two sets of jurors finding him not guilty of any wrongdoing.
If convicted, Dr. Burzynski would have faced a maximum of 290 years in a
federal prison and $18.5 million in fines.
However, what was revealed a few years after Dr. Burzynski won his freedom, helps to paint a more coherent picture regarding the true motivation of the United States government's relentless persecution of Stanislaw Burzynski, M.D., Ph.D.
Note: When Antineoplastons are approved for public use, it will allow a single scientist to hold an exclusive right to manufacture and sell these medicines on the open market—leaving
the pharmaceutical industry absent in profiting from the most effective
gene-targeted cancer treatment the world has ever seen.
