Feirce Pharma ran a story yesterday claiming that GSK CEO, Andrew Witty, had put charity to work by offering a 50 percent discount on meds for U.S. patients who are uninsured.
A nice gesture.
Had it been true.
However....
Later in the day a GSK spokesperson informed FiercePharma that this story is based on an incorrect press release that was published in error. GSK is not offering a 50 percent discount to uninsured patients, but already has prescription assistance plans in place.
Nice to know GSK are on top of things.
