Vioxx, Bextra, Fen phen, Redux? Rezulin, Seldane, Posicor, Duract, Hismanl, Raxar, Propulsid, Lotronex, Baycol?
As far as being in business.. the company in question regarding Gardasil-- Merck-- has been around for more than 300 years.
Sanofi-- one of those licensed to make Swine Flu vaccine in 1976, is still in the flu vaccine business today.
