London A UK company that makes products to treat lung conditions could wind up in the hands of one of the world's biggest cigarette makers, prompting an outcry from health charities that are calling on the British government to block the deal.
Marlboro maker Philip Morris International on Sunday increased its offer for pharmaceutical company Vectura to more than £1 billion in an attempt to fend off a rival bid from US private equity group Carlyle. The revised offer comes just weeks after the tobacco giant said it will stop selling Marlboro cigarettes in Britain within a decade. In a statement, Philip Morris International said it had increased its bid for Vectura to £1.

This company is profiting off of poisoning it’s customers and now wants to profit off of treating the conditions caused by their products. This is a capitalists wet dream! 😳
