		<description><![CDATA[For an inveterate FDA watcher like me it was an interesting spring. First, the agency's failure to police the safety of imported medical products became front-page news when it was revealed that batches of the blood-thinner heparin caused fatal allergic reactions because of contaminated ingredients imported from China. Coming on top of the lead-painted children’s toy and poisoned pet food episodes of a year earlier, the incident confirmed that the FDA lacked sufficient resources to carry out the requisite inspections of overseas manufacturers under its jurisdiction.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=medicalconsumers.org&amp;blog=7088906&amp;post=1154&amp;subd=medconsumers&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The introduction in the 1990s of a high-tech procedure for scanning the lungs of smokers and former smokers raised hopes that it would spare many of them a lung cancer death.
