Yep they are all heart at Gilead alright! So noble of them to help the Icelandic people. ick:' />

Yes, she is not far off from needing a liver tx, that’s until she found Greg & James! Hazel after 4 weeks of treatment is just off undetected

Hazel got a call from Pharmac when I was at her house, she was told that as a F3 for 17 years & cirrhotic that she is not a priority for treatment at this stage. I especially like the dodge from our Minister of Health dodging the question and passing it back to Pharmac. From these responses one is left to assume that New Zealand is a long way off from introducing DAA’s for 50000 kiwis living with HCV. All the more reason why this story of Hazel is awesome as it tells of the generic alternatives and how to go about getting them. As for the Hepatitis foundation of New Zealand I liken it to a ship without a sail, a voiceless entity that goes on about these miracle cures BUT they are out of reach, much like dangling a carrot in front of a donkey. I hope that heaps of Kiwis read Hazels story and take matters into their own hands.
