Coalition Scientists Deny Pancea Kills
Issues report on conflicts and side effects of Pancea
After a few days of Imperial reports that Pancea was killing it's users, Coalition scientists released a report rebuking those claims.
The full report, released to both the GNN and INS, confirms earlier Imperial reports that people who had been given Pancea had become ill. The Coalition admits that it has seen previously undocumented reactions to the drug, which the Coalition blames on "lack of diverse representation" in it's clinical trials.
The report claims that the sickness suffered by Coalitioners who have been given the drug is due to an unforeseen allergic reaction to one of the components of the drug. Effects of the reaction include vomiting and nausea, fatigue, and a gastral intestinal pain among those with compromised gastric systems.
The Coalition advises in the report that those who have been given the drug should seek medical attention if they experience any unusual symptoms. Generally, the symptoms should present as mild and a lightened schedule, or bedrest, should be sufficient. However, in cases where the person has a digestive illness or irregularity, they should, at the advice of their doctor, seek hospitalization.
Coalition scientists continue to deny earlier Imperial claims that Pancea is a killer, and insist that no Pancea user in Coalition space has died. They admit that because of the symptoms of fatigue and gastric pain, users may not be eating properly, and the ill have been given nutritional supplements at the Coalition's request. A memo has been sent to the Imperial Surgeon General asking those ill in Imperial hospitals be given similar care.
According to the memo, a new version of Pancea is being prepared, minus the aggravating component. It will be ready within a few days, as it is currently undergoing final testing. Early results however are promising, and if all goes according to schedule, the Pancea issue could be settled before Regrad is scheduled to release his new budget, ensuring that the Coalition medical service will have time to petition him for additional testing budgets for the next fiscal quarter.
This has been a GNN Medical Update.
