I can certainly understand how frustrated you must be. You have done a wonderful thing by testifying and it is a shame that the result was the way it was. It doesn't surprise me and unfortunately, this scenario will probably repeat itself in many areas.
With the outcry that occurred with the announcement of the vaccine, it is just what I expected. It's a shame that political philosophies have to enter into something as important as cancer prevention.
Please don't let this discourage you from continuing on with your activism. I give you a tremendous amount of credit for what you did and I'm sure that everyone here is proud of you.
