A day after India rejected the conclusions of a study published in a British scientific journal regarding the presence of New Delhi Metallo-beta lactamase bacteria in India that could pose a serious public health threat, suggesting that it was funded by two pharmaceutical companies, Wellcome Trust – that was one of the sponsors – has said it is not a pharmaceutical company.
Contrary to recent media coverage, the Wellcome Trust is not a pharmaceutical company. It is a global charity that funds biomedical research to improve human and animal health and it is independent of both political and commercial interests, a statement issued by the Trust said here on Friday.
