What is going on here? A link is provided from EDD (California Employment Development Department), Page 1 of pdf: http://www.edd.ca.gov/jobs_and_training/warn/WARNReportfor7-1-2014to8-22-2014.pdf
It is the shutdown of a pharma manufacturing site (former Chiron) that is being transferred to the Animal Health division and will be included in the sale to Lilly. It will become a animal vaccine plant.
This was a great way for Group to pawn of a US based site (tax disadvantage) it never had any intent of doing anything at. It was almost sold to Lonza, Vaccines wanted/needed it but in the end transferred it TO AH knowing that it would be someone else's issue shortly. See what happened to Dx/Grifols with the old Bayer/Chiron facility
