Greta is a veterinary microbiologist who works for a large pharmaceutical company. Greta’s team has been working on a new drug that is supposed to help build a dog’s immunity against heartworm infections. The drug looks promising in her first study, but later she begins to receive results showing that the drug is causing serious side effects. Still, Greta’s company has invested a lot of money in this project. Which would be the MOST ethical way for Greta to proceed?
A) Dump the entire project because of the side effect reports.
B) Leave the reports of side effects out of her data.
C) Include the reports of side effects in the data she submits.
D) Find a new set of prospective patients and perform the study again.
