> over the foot-dragging and dissembling when it came to Vioxx?

OT

This is not my understanding of the situation. There was never information that Celebrex—which remained on the market—was any safer than Vioxx. Merck ran post-marketing studies that Pfizer didn’t. Merck management made the decision that the ethical thing to do was to concede the market for COX-2 inhibitors even in the absence of head-to-head data.
