Charles Gasparino writes, “Recently through a banking source, I heard the story of a 26-year-old woman executive at Morgan Stanley who believes there is pressure on young women like herself to freeze their eggs if they want to advance.
“As she described it, the firm will pay $1,200 for women to freeze their eggs for one year (not the best coverage on the Street for something that can cost tens of thousands of dollars); after that, the employee kicks in $100 a month. The real benefit, however, is how going through with the procedure (again, not without possible complications) demonstrates organizational loyalty.
“’Everybody knows this is what you need to do to show management you are committed to the company and that you will push off having a family many years down the road,” she said.’”
The FDA has rejected its strongest safety warning for Covid mRNA vaccines despite acknowledging that children were killed by the products.
This news surfaced during a televised Bloomberg interview with FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, who said the agency has “no plans” to apply its strongest safety warning to Covid mRNA vaccines.
In that interview, Makary confirmed that the FDA’s own safety and epidemiology centre had formally recommended a boxed warning — a step reserved, under FDA rules, for drugs with “special problems, particularly ones that may lead to death or serious injury.”
