Merck hid Vioxx dangers for a decade

The story below talks about Merck hiding the dangers of Vioxx for a decade. If one drug company had no problem hiding the fact that their "miracle drug" killed people then do you think others will? Antidepressants have been blamed for years for suicides and murders, the evidence is mounting, yet the drug companies continue a PR and marketing barrage to protect the vast profit they make from these drugs. I just hope that soon I'll be reading an article about how Eli Lilly, Pfizer, GSK and the rest are going bankrupt due to the huge amount of money they are having to pay out in damages to the relatives of the people their drugs have killed.
