The case of Zahra Dehghanipour, who lives in Iran, illustrates a challenge in modern medicine: Access to lifesaving treatments often depends on accidents of geography https://t.co/EBX8zOybBV
@biogen Please help save Zahra’s life! She is a 6-year-old with Spinal Muscular Atrophy and SPINRAZA is the only way to save her precious life! @SaveZahraD#savezahra
@SaveZahraD@SaveZahraD you can follow SMA Europe's website https://t.co/QO96PRpoFY if you would like some news from this side of the Atlantic ocean. I am sorry there hasn't been an answer from @biogen yet. This is so cruel. Let's hope that very soon a competing medicine will be available!
Dear Angie
Despite all of our efforts , Biogen hasn't respond to our requests yet.
We are trying to convince them to let Zahra use compassionate use.
Iam happy for your son and i hope he retrieve his health soon
@SaveZahraD Hi can you give us an update on Zahra? Have you reached out to biogen lately? My 17 month old son also has SMA and is receiving Spinraza. I am happy to help you how I can
Zahra is only 6 years old and she is battling the deadly disease spinal muscular atrophy (#SMA).
There is a treatment, but the drugmaker @Biogen charges $750,000. You can help save her life by asking Biogen to lower the cost of the drug.

@ADehghannezhad @biogen@SaveZahraD It's just beyond my comprehension how any pharmaceutical company can develop life-saving meds and then doesn't make it accessible to those who most need it. :/ Unfort., the way some national medical systems are run doesn't help either. Parents of children w/SMA in Bulgaria...
@ADehghannezhad @biogen@SaveZahraD ...also have this problem. Government there is not willing to spend the money. I think countries should unite in negotiating better prices and if needed full tax exemption for meds such as SPINRAZA, and use national budgets to buy it for those who need it...
@ADehghannezhad @biogen@SaveZahraD ...In Portugal, a few years ago, people with Hepatitis has the same problem with a med called Sofosbuvir, that can cure the disease in most cases. After protests, the government joined efforts with Spain and managed to buy Sofosbuvir for less.

@biogen Do your share holders have something against compassion? Spinraza may be able to #SaveZahra, but how does a child come up with $750,000? I wonder if insurance companies even cover this medicine yet. Is it only for the rich? Help this child.
