It's been interesting to see the effect of comment bombing mainstream news stories - it works bringing the idea of generics to new eyes.

I could not find the previous ones easily with search so thought it should have its own topic.

Here's one from today called "It takes a miracle to pay for miracle drugs" that could do with some comment based corrections:

If you have a moment and are in the mood please put your $84,000 worth in.....

YMMV

Yes

fixhepc.com/forum/experts-corner/1237-re...s-in-a-nutshell.html

I'm told that Pharco will be presenting the results of generics in Egypt at AASLD in Nov. They have treated 1 million people there with generics which is more than in the entire rest of the world. We will be presenting the final results but nothing much will change from what you see in terms of %SVR

YMMV

Well I just had to throw a comment bomb over there too! :whistle:

If it is to get people to talk about generics, research about the trials and get cured - it is worth a " comment bombardment" friends! :woohoo:
