Rochester, MI. October 25, 2012. Alyson Oliver, a Michigan attorney representing several injured victims of the fungal meningitis outbreak and the lead attorney in the effort to consolidate the fungal meningitis cases nationally, announced today a new website, www.fungalmeningitis.com, designed to educate the public about the what Oliver believes to be the apparent failure of the Massachusetts Department of Health and Human Services to adequately address deficiencies at the New England Compounding Center (NECC), the source of contaminated drugs linked to deaths and widespread injuries. Oliver has uncovered what she terms ‘serious concerns’ about how Governor Mitt Romney’s administration responded to complaints against NECC.

2. God, he's such a fuckface

[KT2000]

3. + 1,000,000 n/t

[nc4bo]

5. And just think, this, for now, is isolated. What is scary as hell is if Romney were to become

POTUS, we can all look forward to more occurrences such as this.

Remember, Romney has said over and over again that businesses were over regulated by the government and he was going to work hard to change that.

[graywarrior]

7. His supporters could care less.

[nc4bo]

9. Could care less until the unthinkable either happens to them or effects their families.

Then they come full throat wanting to sue everybody and everything then suddenly become supportive of more oversight and tighter regulations.

Selfishness and hypocrisy are characteristics they have in abundance.

[graywarrior]

11. They'd find a way to blame Obama

[nc4bo]

13. I hear ya graywarrior. They'll blame Obama alright or break their necks finding a way.

Seriously sick wackos.

[Ilsa]

12. Yeah, he thinks the "free market," or what's

left of it, should decide which companies survive.
Bastard.
I had no idea his administration in MA was deficient in dealing with NECC.

[Ellipsis]

8. He ate the duck... didn't he.

The cat that is.

[Voice for Peace]

20. LOLOLOL I was just wondering the same thing at the exact moment I read this

[nc4bo]

26. Free the poor duck!

I kindof miss seeing it.

[graywarrior]

29. Ummmm, errrrr...oops

[Kalidurga]

4. MSM will start covering this 24/7 in....

10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1... Never mind Romney is a Republican unless he is caught on camera killing a nun there will be no coverage of his misdeeds.

[Angry Dragon]

14. He killed a priest while in France ......... just saying

[PatrynXX]

24. and according to the crazy's on the right

Obama is a Gay man who's also a serial killer who kills these gays jut to keep them quiet. O_O Crazy people. forget hate, just fucking crazy..

[reformist2]

6. So what's the history of this New England Compounding Center, anyway? Was it a Bain company?

Who founded it and when? Who was the owner when these complaints started rolling in? Were there any personal or prior business relationships between the Romney people and NECC management???

[Ellipsis]

10. Don't know that but apparently there was mold/fungus in the labs.

...and they had been warned before about conditions.

[Ellipsis]

15. No... but this

In 2006, Massachusetts regulators responded to complaints about the New England Compounding Center by enlisting an Illinois firm to review the operations of the pharmacy now at the center of the national meningitis outbreak. The chief executive of that firm, the Globe has learned, was awaiting trial on a fraud indictment.

Pharmacy Support Inc., founded by Ross A. Caputo, ­inspected the Framingham ­facility and eventually found it to be satisfactory, helping it avoid probation by the state pharmacy board. Caputo was later convicted and imprisoned for fraud, involving a product blamed for blinding people.

A spokesman for Governor Deval Patrick said in a statement Monday that his administration is investigating regulators’ “troubling” choice of PSI, a selection he said was made during Governor Mitt ­Romney’s administration.

17. Barry Cadden

and Greg Conigliaro are both Romney donors. Another thing, the company that contracted the contaminants is based in Brentwood, TN, but oddly, they contracted with Ameridose, the sister company of NECC. I say oddly because most of the deaths are in, you guessed it, TN. Now who contracted the stuff? Health Trust Purchasing. Who owns them? HCA Holdings. Who owns THEM? B A I N. To the tune of one third of their entire company. Do you think that there would be an interest in covering up fault?

18. Thank you. That's a jaw dropper. n/t

[eppur_se_muova]

27. Holy crap, that deserves a new thread of its own ...

... which I just spotted on the Greatest Page! Really great work!

[bluestate10]

16. I hate Romney, but another Governor has been in charge for the last 6 years.

The current Governor is pretty good at finding problems. Someone need to answer why his administration didn't regulate the compounder. Without that information and an explanation, Romney will turn this on the current Governor and lie his way out of responsibility.

[tbennett76]

19. Except that

ol Bain bought up HCA one month after Romneycare went final

[Frustratedlady]

23. You people amaze me with what you find and how quickly you find it.

What a great source of information DU is.

You couldn't write a book about all you've found on Romney and his connections, as no one would believe it. You'd have to categorize it as fiction.

22. And the shits just keep on coming

[burrowowl]

25. Good find!

[reformist2]

28. Here's someone who probably knows all about it: Timothy Murphy, then Sec. of Health & Human Services

Now President & CEO of Beacon Health Strategies, an outfit that specializes in "cost-containment," surprise surprise...
