Hassan says Schering Plough recovery still on track

Fred Hassan told shareholders at a meeting in Memphis on Friday that he still feels that his turn-around plans for Schering-Plough are still on track. You can see the article here.
But he backs his claim up with some solid facts. Sales at Schering are up by $6.6 Billion in the last four years. And Schering-Plough now has 13 experimental drugs in the final rounds of human testing. That figure is up from 5 in 2003. The recent developments with Vytorin has obviously set Schering back somewhat...but maybe Hassan can still pull off another turn-around...Stay tuned.
