AstraZeneca has posted the Q1 (first quarter) financial report for 2011. The report includes payments to physicians, institutions (Harvard (Mass General), Yale, etc) research organizations and political campaign contributions.
It's quite apparent that funding of doctors and politicians has a lucrative pay off for the pharmaceutical company, once you take a look at the reports, you can see how intertwined the business world, political world and pharmaceutical world are...the force behind the machine is massive. The sales of the billion dollar blockbuster antipsychotic is prime example of an elite and influential sales force in action. The sales force isn't what you expect, when considering the report is not a database of pharmaceutical sales representatives, instead it's a sales force of KOLs (Key Opinion Leaders), doctors and political campaigns where AstraZeneca pays the best of the best in their eyes, because they promote their agenda and products in various ways.
The AstraZeneca Q1 payments are example of the strong foothold pharmaceutical companies have in America's fabric, intricately woven and delicate, America appears to be a corporate funded country, which is highly influenced by corporations such as AstraZeneca. Americans on average probably have no idea just how influential the company is, but when you take a look at the payment reports, it becomes crystal clear. The word stakeholdercomes to mind.
