Court Filing Suggests Mass. Pharmacy Blamed For Meningitis Outbreak Misled Regulators
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — New court filings suggest a Massachusetts pharmacy blamed for a deadly outbreak of fungal meningitis last year may have used patient lists from a Nashville clinic to mislead regulators.
The suggestion was part of a statement by the former Saint Thomas Outpatient Neurosurgical Center medical director in a lawsuit brought by Wayne Reed. Reed is suing the clinic after his wife died when she was injected with contaminated medicine made by the New England Compounding Center, in Framingham, Mass.
The meningitis outbreak caused 55 deaths, including 15 in Tennessee.
