DONALD TRUMP has vowed to accelerate cures for terminal illness as he took aim at the chief executives of America’s biggest pharmaceutical companies in front of the TV cameras.
The US President laid into the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for taking too long to approve new and revolutionary drugs for patients that have “got four weeks to live”.
Speaking to a group of America's leading pharmaceutical executives, he said: “They come up with a new drug for a patient that is terminal and the FDA say we can’t approve the drug, we don’t know if the drug is going to work.
“But the patient is going to die in four weeks and they say we don’t want to harm the patient, but the patient isn’t going to live for more than four weeks.”
He vowed to speed up the approval process so desperately ill Americans can get the treatment they urgently need.
President Trump, 70, said: "So we're going to change a lot of the rules.
"You're going to get your prices either approved, or not approved, but it's not going to take 15 years."

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
