(Pharmaceutical Company Name/Address)
Dear _______,
It has come to our attention that (Pharmaceutical company name) has recently entered into licensing agreements with Crucell, N.V to use their aborted fetal cell line PER C6. As a concerned parent who refuses to use products dependant upon the destruction of innocent human life, I am writing to ask you to reconsider your decision.
I know it is unnecessary to use this cell line to cultivate vaccines and in doing so, your company image portrays a lack of concern for the sanctity and dignity of human life. It is really no different than the action of Nazis who performed experiments on the murdered Jews during the holocaust. A helpless segment of society was targeted and used as a commodity for the benefit of others then, just as the remains of these babies are being used today. And while we understand and support the need for new and effective treatments for infectious disease, such products should only be developed using the highest ethical standards.
I am not anti-vaccine but I do believe that no one should have to compromise their moral or religious beliefs in order to protect the health and well being of their families and society. Where there are alternatives, we are using them!
Please commit your utmost attention to this matter. If not for the sake of our American society, you owe this at least to your shareholders who will not be receiving as large a return on their investment as they might have hoped. I am willing to stand behind you if you make the right decision. Please give serious consideration to my request.
Sincerely,
