 It is grossly offensive to use any tissue or organ from an aborted child or human embryo and develop it into a vaccine, or for that matter anything, so that someone else might live or live healthily.  It is a non-negotiable issue that using an aborted fetal cell line as an injection into the human body is not only unethical but symptomatic of human eugenics.  I cannot stress strongly enough for the FDA to categorically reject any such plans for implementation.  If a pharmaceutical company cannot or will not police itself to ensure that no harm is done to embryos and fetuses, then the federal government must do its job to ensure that all human life is protected.  No compromises and no exceptions.



Thank you for listening to me. 



Sincerely,



Nedd Kareiva
