Public Trust in Pharma at an All-Time Low, Says Gallup Poll

Americans feel that pharma is the least trustworthy industry, according to a new poll.

Pharma came in dead last on the 2019 Gallup Work and Education poll, which asks respondents to rate the trustworthiness of 25 business sectors. Even government, the traditional holder of last place, scored higher than pharma.

According to the report, Americans are more than twice as likely to rank pharma negatively than positively, with 58 percent expressing negative opinions and only 27 percent viewing the industry in a positive light.
