(AP) — A few minutes after the event was abruptly ended, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt released a statement saying that “a representative with one of the companies fainted” but that “The White House Medical Unit quickly jumped into action, and the gentleman is okay.”
She didn’t identify the man, but said the drug price event would resume shortly.
It had featured executives from drugmakers Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly.
