Die 'Elektrisch' (Straßenbahn) fährt jetzt bald wieder zu uns in den hohen Norden #Darmstadt|s!
Die "7" meiner Kindheit kommt aber nicht mehr. Stattdessen ist jetzt die "6" der Standardzug von #Alsbach nach #Oarhellje, die damals nur den #Merck an die Stadt anband. Die "8" bedient Randzeiten und Wochenende. Wozu es die zusätzliche Nummer braucht, kapier ich heute so wenig, wie damals bei 7&8. Aber is mir aa worscht.

Don’t let the rainbow fool you. #Merck is currently:
1) advocating for multiple doses of #gardasil when one is sufficient
2) promoting #molnupiravir despite its ineffectiveness and risks to both patients and global health
3) suing to block #medicare from negotiating drug prices

Corporations, driven by profits, often overlook ethical considerations.

#Merck exemplifies this issue.

Here are three ways it’s putting profits over people right now. 🧵 1/12

#Cybersecurity #Merck #Cyberattack #NotPetya #Russia: "Insurers for Merck & Co. must help cover losses from a $1.4 billion cyberattack that the U.S. blamed on Russia, a court said, rejecting the insurers’ argument that the attack was akin to an act of war normally excluded from coverage.

The NotPetya cyberattack didn’t involve military action and can’t be excluded from coverage under a warlike-act exclusion, New Jersey appellate division judges said in a decision released Monday.

“The exclusion of damages caused by hostile or warlike action by a government or sovereign power in times of war or peace requires the involvement of military action,” the judges wrote. “Coverage could only be excluded here if we stretched the meaning of ‘hostile’ to its outer limit.”

Merck is pleased with the decision, a spokesman for the Rahway, N.J.-based pharmaceutical company said. Lawyers for Merck’s insurers didn’t respond to a request for comment."

#merck baut 550 Stellen in den nächsten Jahren in #Darmstadt ab. Das ist traurig, aber wohl in diesen Zeiten notwendig.
Krass fande ich im Artikel die Tatsache, dass in Darmstadt 12.500 bei Merck arbeiten. Das ist ja quasi jeder 10. Mensch in Darmstadt! Verrückt!

New study: The Academy of #Nutrition and #Dietetics (#AND) is entangled with corporations such as #Aramark, #CocaCola, #Conagra, #Hershey, #Kraft, #Nestlé, and #PepsiCo, and #pharma companies such as #Abbott, Johnson & Johnson (#J&J), #Merck, and #Pfizer. It has accepted financial contributions from them, invested funds in them, discussed internal policies to benefit them, and allowed its board members to work or consult for them.

#Merck ist in der Bredouille: Nach Anpassung der #Levothyroxin-Rezeptur eines Medikaments klagen Patienten über #Nebenwirkungen. Der Fall ging vor Gericht, der Hersteller musste zahlen. Aber ausgestanden ist die Sache immer noch nicht.

⬆️ Die Stadt #Darmstadt bekommt vom Ehepaar Stein (#Doehler Group) die von ihnen als Stiftung errichtete Kita in #Bessungen nahezu geschenkt. Das mag ich an dieser kleinen Großstadt, wo es Unternehmer:innen gibt, die sich der Stadt verbunden fühlen und etwas für die Gemeinschaft tun. Siehe auch das Sponsoring von #Merck, #Alnatura, #softwareag.. Es gibt bestimmt noch mehr Beispiele, oder?
