Along with these other drugs, diabetes drugs are skyrocketing in cost, and Congress just introduced a bill in response to the Mylan Epi-Pen ridiculousness that they admitted won't be looked at seriously before they recess (again) and probably won't really do much even if it were to be passed except implore the FDA to be faster at approving generics, as if that doesn't still line pockets of industry folks. <br /><br />Yesterday, I helped rescue a man from the middle of the street in my neighborhood. He is a (likely undocumented) construction worker who went out to have a cigarette on his lunch break, had a seizure (apparently he has a history of them but can't afford the medication he needs to control them), and fell face-first into the middle of the street. Luckily, there were no cars coming but mine and a neighbor's and we both were able to stop, wait for his seizure to be over, gently carry him to the grass and call 911. He couldn't speak, didn't know his name, was bleeding profusely from the head, and as the ambulance carried him off, his boss lamented that this might break the man - the cost of the ambulance ride, hospitalization, loss of days of work, etc. I went through the rest of my day heartbroken.

Although here in Alberta there are rules for what Blue Cross will cover with regards to drugs. You can't just have any drug you want paid for, your doctor has to explain why the cheaper version won't or doesn't work for you before it's covered. I don't have a problem with that because it keeps the costs down for everyone and the new drugs are the more expensive ones, not always the best ones. Blood thinners is one example of this. People don't like taking Coumadin because of the weekly blood tests which I understand are a pain in the ass but the new drugs are liked not because they work better or have fewer side effects or are cheaper, it's because they are more convenient. <br /><br />I could go on. I think that we all have an obligation to help make the world better for everyone in it, not just ourselves. I believe that we are all connected and that what hurts one person or group, hurts all of us. I believe that we need each other. Not beliefs shared by big business obviously but why not?
