Someone recently e-mailed me why I’m focused so much on J&J. The answer is simple – because I believe this to be THE most significant story in the pharmaceutical industry. Period.
As an industry, we have faced numerous public perception problems. J&J’s just fueling that. The one thing you could always count on was the safety of Tylenol – take two and call me in the morning.
But what happens when your Tylenol is laced with a toxic chemical that has an unknown impact on public health and the company has worked hard to cover it up?
That’s the situation we find ourselves in. J&J’s behavior hurts the entire industry.
