    Another Facebook only comments section. But there are no comments! And this an editorial all related to the unaffordable pricing!

    thanks GF. Also I just found a new plan- I searched that news website for hep c- turned up quite a few articles- so left some on the most recent. Guess I could do same with the others- LA, Washington, Huffington etc- search the site and comment. Not all need facebook. Worth anybody searching any news site.

    That’s a great idea. Write letters to the editor of different newspapers about generics.

    I’ve commented like this:

    Affordable cure, as in $1500 USD for the complete course, is available by using generic hepatitis medications. Like the HIV generics that preceded them, HCV generics are helping to improve the balance between patient rights and patent rights. Google “generic hep c medication” to see more.

    Putting links in comments tends to get them deleted, but putting a bit of info and a use Google to find out more suggestion, with the search term

    “generic hep c medication”

    Turns up MSF, FixHepC, Greg’s blog and the Medscape and WebMD coverage of the EASL generics presentation in the first page results.


    YMMV
