PhRMA is closing HQ after coronavirus exposure
PhRMA, the lobbying arm of the drug industry, has shuttered its headquarters for the rest of the week after confirming that someone who had been exposed to the novel coronavirus entered its office last week.
As STAT’s Nicholas Florko reports, PhRMA is now deep-cleaning its Washington headquarters and will keep employees away until March 20.
The group is one of many operating at maximum caution in the wake of a planning meeting at Biogen that resulted in more than 70 presumed or confirmed cases of coronavirus, including one affecting a company executive. Meanwhile, more than 30 scientific and health care-related meetings have been canceled, postponed, or shifted to a webcast as the number of global infections crossed 118,000.
