Key concepts: Nobel Prize, AstraZeneca and Financial ties

Questions are being raised about a web of financial ties between the drug maker AstraZeneca and the Nobel Prize Foundation. According to reports from Pharmalot and Discover Magazine, AstraZeneca has financially sponsored two of the Nobel Foundation subsidiaries and maintains strong financial ties to decision makers who actually award the Nobel Prize.

But that's not all: A member of the Nobel Committee serves on the AstraZeneca board, and another top representative of the Nobel Committee received money from AstraZeneca in 2006.

Why is this suspicious? Because the 2008 Nobel Prize for Medicine was awarded to a scientist who discovered the human papillomavirus (HPV), for which AstraZeneca's subsidiary, MedImmune, holds valuable vaccine patents. Glorifying HPV through a Nobel Prize award also provides valuable publicity about the virus, resulting in direct financial gains for the HPV vaccines sold by drug companies.

Is there no institution in medicine that has not been hijacked by Big Pharma's agenda? With drug companies now running the med schools, the medical journals, the mainstream media and the lawmakers, I suppose it was only a matter of time before they took over the "prize" institutions as well. It's all part of a deeply corrupted system to try to legitimize an industry of death built on deceptions and junk science.
