A Pfizer unit that makes the EpiPen device for Mylan experienced a quality-control meltdown that included a failure to investigate “serious” problems associated with an unspecified number of patient deaths.
Throughout last year, Meridian Medical Technologies received hundreds of complaints that the EpiPen device, which is used to combat serious allergic reactions, failed to operate during life-threatening emergencies. Yet the Pfizer manufacturing unit not only failed to thoroughly investigate the problem, but did not initially remove potentially defective products.

Perhaps the manufacturer didn’t want to count the deaths because then their failures would lead to even more lawsuits.
Nowadays, when a company says that the harm is not so bad, how do they know it is true?? More likely, they have just closed their eyes & stopped trying to find out the Truth…
If corporations are people, thanks to SCOTUS, then let their CEOS personally stand trial for murder when their products kill!!
