 AM, MEET AT 801 HOWARD ST (AT 4TH ST)  A PRESS EVENT, THEN A DEMONSTRATION  
     * * * * * * * WE DEMAND * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *    *  Stop drug 
 company price gouging! Lower drug prices now!    *  Stop drug company 
 predatory marketing!  Drug ads off TV!    *  Stop truth decay on drugs! 
 Honest, objective info on generics!    *  Prescriptions for seniors and

 with the drug industry.    * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
 * * * *  Thousands will be at Moscone Center next week protesting as 
 representatives of world-wide biotech companies, drug companies, and 
 governments meet to make plans for cashing in on cancer cures, blockbuster 
 drugs, genetically modified crops, and bioweapons research. Behind the 
 scientific razzle-dazzle is corporate capture and distortion of research in 
 medicine, food and other necessities that the people should own in common 
 for our benefit.  While millions in the US go without medicines, and many 
 millions more die abroad from lack of AIDS, TB, and malaria medicines, the 
 biotech and drug companies are planning a glitzy and profitable future.    
 And Bay Area governments see this lethal business as the key to their 
 concept of economic recovery: more gentrification and displacement of poor 
 and working people.   Sponsors:    *  Senior Action Network    *  
 California Alliance of Retired Americans (CARA)    *  San Francisco Gray 
 Panthers    *  Greenlining Institute    *  San Francisco Labor Council
