GSK again - I just posted on Twitter: re current Chinese issue when the CEO has stated he knew nothing : Sir Andrew Witty said the drug firm had 'no sense' of the 'shameful' allegations that some GSK China executives bribed doctors with cash and sexual favours worth £320m
When GSK were fined in USA (note never fined in UK even though investigations carried out on unethical GSK actions!)
The denials we heard from employees of GSK, when Glaxo was accused of covering up the facts they knew about suicide risk of Seroxat still ring in our ears. So sorry Sir Andrew it seems the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing in GSK - can that really be so?
Judging by the fact the two stories about USA and China both hit the news in the month of July - is this to replace August in future as the time known in the press as the ' SILLY SEASON' ?
Questionable ethics #Glaxo again
