Reuters exclusively reports Eli Lilly memo says firm did not make false statements to FDA

Reuters reported exclusively that a week before Eli Lilly disclosed to regulators that the U.S. Justice Department was investigating its New Jersey factory, the drugmaker told employees that its own inquiry, led by an outside law firm, found no evidence of wrongdoing there. The law firm was tapped to investigate alleged alterations of documents, which employees said were meant to downplay serious quality control problems at the plant producing the company’s COVID-19 antibody treatment.
