I  commented on the appended article in the Guardian, and contacted the parties who have worked so tirelessly in the public interest, to thank them.   http://www.theguardian.com/science/2015/sep/16/seroxat-study-harmful-effects-young-people?CMP=EMCNEWEML6619I2#comment-59709849  My Comment: Moonbean says “Thanks to […]
