Additional shenanigans from Merck: “Merck to pay $670 million over Medicaid fraud in 2007
Merck had failed to pay the appropriate rebates to Medicaid and other government healthcare programmes, and had also paid kickbacks to doctors and hospitals to induce them to prescribe various drugs. The allegations were brought in two separate lawsuits filed by whistle-blowers, and one of them would receive $68 million. From 1997 to 2001, Merck’s sales force used approximately 15 different programmes to induce doctors to prescribe its drugs. These programmes primarily consisted of excess payments to doctors disguised as fees for ‘training’, ‘consultation’ or’market research’. The government alleged that these fees were illegal kickbacks intended to induce the purchase of Merck drugs. Merck agreed to a Corporate Integrity Agreement.”
Doc Wakefield has been working on a movie with professional actors about this for a long time, as he was involved with the Merck whistleblowers in the process. Now "Protocol-7", chronicling the true story of the historic lawsuit against Merck for fraudulent activity behind the mumps portion of their MMR vaccine, is ready.
Recent interview in the Highwire incl. clips from the movie:
The public must be readier than ever to be interested in seeing how big pharma operates with whistleblowers and lawsuits, and the movie will help to get some accountability.
(Merck is one of the particularly nasty ones with a heavy history in bioweapons incl. introducing serious infectious diseases into human population and planned targeting of populations can't be ruled out (1970's Heptovax trial on Africans and US gay community in Bay Area and NYC, a possible source for HIV as they were running the Special Virus Cancer Program at the same time which seem to have been searching cancer-causing viruses more than the cure)).
Remember that lawsuit against merck for fraud with the mumps bit of their mmr injection?
