The bill establishes the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Agency (BARDA), as the single point of authority within the government for the advanced research and development of drugs and vaccines in response to bioterrorism and natural disease outbreaks such as the flu. BARDA will operate in secret, exempt from the Freedom of Information Act and the Federal Advisory Committee Act, insuring that no evidence of injuries or deaths caused by drugs and vaccines labeled as "countermeasures" will become public.

WHAT!?

Where did you get this info, Jinx? Can you give us a link? Un-fucking-believable! Such a step would be very bad science, horrendous medicine, and totalitarian government. I want to know more about this, so I can write the Colorado delgation in DC (for whatever good it will do)!
