Like many intentionally confusing corporate crisis response messages, this says a bunch of things that are true but don’t mean what you think, like for example:
“On April 5, during a World Health Organization meeting, the GDF shared its intent to launch a tender for generic versions of SIRTURO® 100mg in the third quarter of 2023”
This sounds like it says “everybody can have generic bedaquiline!!” But actually they *had to allow* the production of a generic because some countries had the power and systems in place to reject their attempt to extend their patent. The generic will not be available in countries where the patent extension wasn’t rejected, just like John said in his video.
Unless that’s not the case @JNJNews!!
If you’re telling us that you will allow the sale of generics anywhere in the developing world then we will happily send thank you baskets to your entire c-suite! Please let us know! Maybe we got it wrong and you only did the arduous work of extending the patent in a bunch of developing countries for funsies!
@jazlynskyy Always going to be patient and supportive of you Jaz. Wish I could help out more but I hope things go better for you and your family soon ❤️
@jazlynskyy You don't need to apologise for anything Jaz, it's not your fault people took it the wrong way. I'm glad to hear from you, just wish you could have had a bit more control of when you came back
@BukkitBrown This immediately took me to an anime scene cutting between the villian to the hero doing dances trying to find the right one.
First the Samba then the Macarena then Birdy dance before finally settling on twerking at the villian to cast fireball 😂

(if you see this Bukkit and are uncomfortable with it, I am more than happy to take it down)
@jazlynskyy hey hey no. whatever is wrong, talk to someone. There's a lot of people who care about you and would be willing to help and/or listen, please
@jazlynskyy It sucks that that sort of thing takes things going wrong to be able notice it but I'm glad things didn't go "in the ER" wrong. I'm happy that you're feeling a bit better emotion-wise
