        Only the wealthy will benefit. It will take many years for prices to go down and then a Shkreli will buy it and make it twice as expensive.

        The prices will come down as we get new tech. We need to stay focused on genetic medicine.

        A máfia da medicina, dos laboratórios que visam apenas o Lucro, não a vida. Curar um paciente não é lucro.

        Yep, I'm on a gene modifier that costs $330,000 per year. I've been on it for 3 years. The price is a problem that needs addressed.

        If this can save lives, it should be FREE! Who the hell can afford $475,000 for treatments?

        Actually this is the problem of high cost medicines. They cannot reach people who can hardly afford them..

        Kymriah is used to treat acute lymphocytic leukemia, the most common cancer in children. Hardly rare.

        The notion that any new drug development cost $Billions in R&D is completely false & is proven by looking at the firm's #tax & #SEC fillings
