Nobody "created" a narrative that blames the FDA. The FDA is factually complicit in these deaths. Three review teams and two senior officials voted unanimously against approval, but the (then) head of FDA's CBER was buddies with Sarepta, and so they got approved and three people have died. Nobody created that narrative. It's simply what happened.
