笔谤辞蹿别蝉蝉辞谤听Rob Field discussed the Food and Drug Administration's approval system in an article聽published in ABC News.com's Health section on June 23.
Following the聽approval last week of silicone breast implants, which the聽FDA noted could聽result in聽complications and that聽additional data was needed聽to provide a more detailed聽view of the device's safety and efficacy, the聽agency came under fire by advocacy groups citing聽the risks associated with the device.
"There are always going to be judgment calls, and it's unusual for anything to be deemed totally safe or totally unsafe," Field said of the FDA's approval system. "It's important to remember that each individual reacts differently. A person has to weigh their tolerance with risk."
