GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) is sponsoring an educational program and Web site called the State of Diabetes Complications in America, which boasts as spokespeople former Dallas Cowboys running back Ron Springs and his son, Washington Redskins cornerback Shawn Springs. According to the campaign's Web site, about three out of five people with type 2 diabetes have at least one of the other serious health problems associated with the disease. The site includes maps of the United States showing diabetes prevalence and blood sugar levels in each state. There are also resources for patients, including a diabetes complications risk assessment tool and steps to take for better blood sugar control. Ron and Shawn Springs will appear in Dallas next week on behalf of the campaign to talk about Ron's experience with the disease, as the campaign presents new report findings.

Great eh? Manufacture a drug to help diabetes patients, sit back and deny there is any problems with said drug once reports filter in about patients suffering heart attacks on drug. Then the creme de la creme - Hire a well known face to say how great GSK are.
