There are always conflicts and choices in business. For the pharmaceutical companies that research, test, produce and distribute drugs for our well being the regulations are complex. The stated intent of drug trials is to protect people from harm. Again it is a scientist professional obligation to find the fundamental truth regarding the relative good versus the relative bad side effects of any given drug.

In this part of your report explain WHY people chose to disregard common values and ethics such as trust, integrity or fairness to others.
What behaviors followed the initial breach of ethics? In other words did one ethical breach motivate or inspire more ethical breaches? For this portion of your case study please utilize ethical terms such as justice, fairness, welfare, freedom and virtue.
3. What were the outcomes or consequences? Consider both short term and long term, financial, reputation, relationships, image and/ or trust. Report if the cultural, social and legal landscapes have changed for the better or worse based on this case.
All case studies should be 2 or 3 pages. Answer each of the 3 questions. The majority of words should address question 2, behaviors. The layout is single spaced paragraph(s) for each of the 3 steps.
