rohcvfighter, well done!
I applaud your effort to help your countrymen. I bet you helped some people to eventually get cured. That’s one hell of an achievement, to save someone’s life

Actually, it seems that you revised your comment as it suggested that an American being on a British committee was somehow wrong and a sign of corruption:
Greedfighter wrote:Yes beaches, I agree. It’s very interesting, I listened to her again, she is an American! How is it that she is on a British pharmaceutical committee? What a corrupt world we live in.
Whether you think she is a “shill” or not is irrelevant. Your post simply betrayed your prejudices and ignorance.
Greedfighter wrote:She’s not corrupt only because she plays for the greed team. I can’t call her a tiger if the team uniform is orange and black stripes.
She’s not corrupt; she is a piece of shit.
If you listen to her, I can’t help but want to kick her in the mouth, however she is not corrupt, since she represents the pharma manufacturers, who are delighted by high prices at the expense of human life. Yay team!
And in this last post of yours, do you really think you can brush off with an emoticon your stated desire to kick a woman in the mouth because you have decided she represents a point of view that you disagree with?
And then congratulate yourself by shouting, “Yay, team!”?
Unless you wish to have an identity associated with advocating violence, you really need to think a bit before hitting the send button.

I can’t understand how anyone with Hep C would not be deeply, deeply offended when someone starts on about cost vs value. What she was saying amounted to blackmail, pure and simple.

Hi G,
I saw your message only couple of minutes ago.
Thank you, I hope too that some RO people got valuable information in their native language. I tend to believe that a major part of HCV patients from Romania are over a certain age and because of this, they did not had the chance to learn the English language, so if they (or via their friends, children) can read and understand the information, it will be a big plus.Cheers

[/quote]No, it doesn’t. She was outlining a business position. Interestingly a business position that has allowed many people on this site to get better by buying drugs that Gilead has made cheaply available in certain countries.
Please don’t let your desire to be angry at something cloud your reason concerning the medication that is benefiting so many people (if they have more than two brain cells in their heads and a sense of adventure.) She is not responsible for the business environment created by the governments that have been democratically elected.
