Surprise state inspections at 37 specialty pharmacies in Massachusetts show that only four have been fully complying with industry safety standards, health officials announced Tuesday, a finding that underscores concerns about the risk of drug contamination.
All 37 are similar to the Framingham compounding pharmacy blamed for the fatal outbreak of fungal meningitis last year.

So now the State once again caught with its pants down, tries to correct the non-compliant pharmacies while it attempts to correct the corrupt Probation Dept and the zippy di-doo-da Dookinized State Lab. Hurrah for MA.
Excuse me,
"Surprise Inspections." Excuse me, but: "Surprise Inspections ......!" What the GD.. was going on before people across the United States of America stated dying? No inspections; corrupt inspections; probably so. You can't blame this one on Annie Dookhan. Mass has a corrupt health system on a giant scale, pure and simple.
any info on the last time they were inspected, seems to me they weren't................
You do have to love the Globe for running this story right next to the article on the regulation of the medical marijuana businesses that will be opening soon in MA. Now I feel confident about how that is going to turn out.
Where are the nattering nabobs of negativity on this one? Where is the argument that less goverment regulation is bad for small businesses? Talk radio, Faux News- speak now or forever hold your piece (sic).
Typing with my fists again: that should be "Where is the argument that MORE government regulation is bad for small businesses?"
