Wow, I’d never heard of the Pfizer case. Here’s a crazy snippet:

“Pfizer argued that it was not required to obtain informed consent for experimental drug trials in Africa, and that any case should be heard in Nigeria”

From the Wiki article

>Pfizer subsequently settled the case out of court with a $75 million settlement that was subject to a confidentiality clause.

Does the confidentiality clause also suppress media or is that a separate payment to whoever is putting their nose into it? I'm curious how these stories get out, and are there others that don't ever reach Wiki articles?
