From the Chicago Tribune article posted by BigKNY3 at the PFE thread (Post # 3328):

As a lucrative world business, pharmaceuticals are experiencing pervasive thefts of patents, Steere noted. Companies in India have been sending out bulk supplies of a Viagra-type drug, Argentina has a reputation as a big pirate due to its lack of patent laws and Egypt is also involved in unauthorized manufacture and sales, he said.

It seems there's nothing Pfizer can do to stop these thefts.
