Unmasking Big Pharma: Scott Higham on the Opioid Crisis
“There's a lot of internal emails and memorandums that are coming out that are highly damaging, I think, to some of these defendants in this case, and the Arco's data that is coming out is also shocking because of the sheer volume, and I think this is one of the reasons why the defendants had fought so hard to keep this secret and to keep it away from the public's view.”
Ever wondered how deep the roots of the opioid crisis go? This episode of Cover 2 Resources brings Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Scott Higham to the forefront, shedding light on the murky world of Big Pharma. Higham dives into the ARCOS data, a DEA treasure trove that maps out the opioid epidemic, revealing which communities were hit hardest and the shocking efforts to keep this information under wraps.
He doesn't just point fingers at the major manufacturers and distributors; he uncovers the hidden players and the industry's aggressive lobbying tactics. It's a journey through the labyrinth of data and deception that leaves you questioning who really holds the power. Perfect for anyone seeking clarity on how we got here and what it means for our future, this episode is a must-listen.
