Movie Happy Feet = Roche = Tamiflu

[Guest guest]

I mentioned this a couple weeks ago and just got around to some

researching today. Apparently this agreement with Roche advertising

their flufacts.com site is the first to happen with a major animated

motion picture for children. Nice huh?

Then of course the Tamiflu article that hit last week about the

behaviors from taking the medication.

I was considering boycotting this movie, now I think I am.

Here's some stuff I found:
