A recall for EpiPens will now extend to Asia, Europe, North America, and South America:
Generic drugmaker Mylan NV said on Friday that its manufacturing partner for EpiPen devices had expanded a recall of the life-saving allergy shot in the United States and other markets.
The announcement comes a week after Mylan said it had recalled about 81,000 EpiPen devices in countries outside the United States following two reports of the company's allergy treatment failing to work in emergencies.
[Ed. Note: This recall is limited to some lot numbers distributed in late 2015 and early-to-mid 2016. More information at the US FDA website.]

If they can jack up the price 100x, they can be held responsible if the device fails to work as advertised.
I get it, you can't lock these greedy bastards up for price gouging. But surely you can lock them up for not providing the services promised, or some other lawyerly thing.
