On June 1, 2021, Moderna hired Novartis top attorney Shannon Klinger. Her job, oversee the mRNA experimental roll out as they recognize adverse reactions will skyrocket. The never marketed new technology only has a few months of clinical data on record for their scientist to understand the effects it’ll have on human subjects.
With Shannon’s background in commercial products, she’s the right person for the task. In 2020, she helped Novartis with fraud allegation encompassed in kickbacks, charity donation and bribes to increase prescription for their pharmaceutical drug line.
“Shannon’s deep global experience in the pharmaceutical industry in both the general counsel and ethics and compliance roles are critical to Moderna as we pivot to a broad international and commercial footprint,”
Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel said in a statement Monday.
