Fantastic background piece on Julie "pay me more, sweetie" Gerberding
Wow… Congratulations Julie! Who would have guessed that you would be the one person in the whole world that Merck would want to head their vaccine division?
Oh… that is right… we did.
Julie’s years of “looking and looking” for a vaccine/autism connection with the firm resolve of OJ Simpson looking for the real killers, asinine statements on autism in the press and denialism of an epidemic happening in front of everyone’s eyes has finally paid off big for her.
Here is what we do know now… that the head of vaccines for Merck is a liar. And one who tells absurd lies and thinks that people will swallow them. In the age of vaccine skepticism, Merck was so concerned with winning the public trust that they hired the woman who was the at the helm of the autism epidemic for the last eight years.
Brilliant.
But I am guessing that deal with the devil was made long ago.
