lyrics

The profit lies in continued dependence
The best customers stay sick
Patent the cures, Greed, A man made killer
Share the syringe, It’s Russian roulette
Millions die, corporate healthcare.
You want disease to create your fortune, millions die
Human beings are better off in your care?

This was written after I read a WHO article which estimated that 1.3 million people die every year as a result of syringe re-use. This is an entirely man-made killer which results in more deaths than malaria. In Africa around 20 MILLION injections contaminated with AIDS are given every year, not to mention other diseases such as hepatitis. On average in the ‘developing world’ every syringe is used 4 times. Unicef use safe syringes for childhood immunisations… but the other 90% of immunisations are forgotten about. Syringes are cheap to make, including auto-disable syringes which prevent re-use, but changing production methods would prove expensive and result in people not requiring the syringes or medicine in the future as they would not be sick- this is not in the medical corporations financial interests. However, action is being taken to ensure the use of non-reusable syringes, notably with SAFEPOINT TRUST. People the world over favour corporate and private healthcare run for a profit instead of human health, either out of greed or ignorance, despite examples such as this.
