@DanaherCorp@Penn@carlhjune@jameslriley This statement resonates with general ethics but not with the actions of @DanaherCorp when you price-gouge TB tests in the poorest countries and therefore directly lead to lives lost.
.@DanaherCorp has shut down their public-facing phone line. I guess they don't love hearing from the public. That's odd, because they were happy to accept over $250,000,000 of public money to develop their GeneXpert Machine.
Are you familiar with the printer ink business model? Sell a printer for a modest profit because you'll make the real money from forcing people to buy your ink? IT's also known as the razor blade business model.
Danaher sells its diagnostic machines at a small profit and then price gouges for tests--thus denying millions access to affordable, accurate tests for tuberculosis. And then THEY BRAG ABOUT IT TO THEIR SHAREHOLDERS. Just listen to @DanaherCorp CEO Rainer Blair. #PeopleOverProfits
Morning, @DanaherCorp. I notice you haven't responded to calls to stop price-gouging poor countries for TB tests. Just like you didn't respond to open letters from Doctors without Borders.
Perhaps you are hoping the storm will blow over.
Well, you're trending. #PeopleOverProfits
Good morning, @CepheidNews and @DanaherCorp. Admin, today is going to be difficult. I'm sorry about that. It isn't about you--I'm sure you're lovely. This is about your bosses price-gouging the world's poorest countries through Cepheid's functional monopoly on tuberculosis tests. #peopleoverprofits
I get a lot of graduation announcements this time each year (which is a specific and important joy in my life) so I was initially quite confused when I opened up this one.
Thanks, Joe.
@alexmwang1992@BirdCentralPark Hi! I’m looking for those orioles right now! We’re having a little trouble spotting them
Was the nest on the lawn roadside? Heather Garden side?
Thanks for getting us out and to a park today (:

@DanPersons on how Back to the Future Part II pokes at the film industry’s tendency to milk a hit unto exhaustion, and refused to follow the rules of blockbuster sequels:
