EXCERPT:
CROCKETT: “Yes, but I’m going to give you another question that you can answer. Would you consider erectile dysfunction as a lifesaving usage for Viagra?”
CALIFF: “Not lifesaving.”
CROCKETT: “Not lifesaving, okay. Well, I’m going to tell you that, based on my research, that Mifepristone actually has lifesaving characteristics, yet Viagra doesn’t. And for those that don’t know, Viagra, from my understanding, is actually nearly 10 times greater as it relates to risk of death.”
