Since 2000, Pfizer has incurred $10.268b in penalties
In 2012, Pfizer paid $45 million to settle charges of bribing doctors and other health-care professionals employed by foreign governments in order to win business.
The Chief of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Unit said: ‘Pfizer subsidiaries in several countries had bribery so entwined in their sales culture that they offered points and bonus programs to improperly reward foreign officials who proved to be their best customers’.
In June-August 2020, the US Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Justice said they were looking at Pfizer’s activities in China and Russia under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which forbids US firms from bribing foreign officials.
At least 1964 deaths are on their hands, and that is just what is proven.
I would say its closer to 5,000,000.
