GlaxoSmithKline pulls flu vaccines in Canada
On November - 24 - 2009
Pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline PLC advised Canadian doctors not to use a small batch of swine flu vaccines after reports of allergic reactions and severe-side effects among recipients.
Company spokeswoman Gwenan White advised the medical staff in Canada last week not to use a small batch of vaccine about 170,000 doses while they are investigating the reports of allergic reactions using the vaccines.
GlaxoSmithKline is one of the world’s largest drug makers by revenue.
