Obviously you have not seen the deception on their advertising and their interviews. |
Now, peacegirl, I think English is your native tongue, in which case you ought to know how endophoric pronouns take their meaning from an antecedent. In this case the pronoun "their" in your reply refers back to the antecedent "FDA" in my question. It may be that you intended to refer to advertising and interviews given by other parties; doctors or clinics or the like; but that's not how English works. Whatever you intended, you were actually saying something about the advertising for and interviews about lasik surgery emanating from the FDA.
I may be wrong, but I am fairly sure the FDA doesn't advertise or give interviews advocating for lasik surgery, nor indeed for any other drugs or therapies. Is it your belief that they do?
Can you cite some examples? |
The FDA is suppose to approve procedures that are safe and effective. This procedure has inherent risks that are unacceptable, according to the man who gave the original approval. That should tell you something.
