I hope all this insulin discourse actually leads to a change in insulin prices…
Making Eli Lilly lose stock money is cool and all but I hope the pressure continues beyond this “viral” moment online.
Tomorrow is #WorldDiabetesDay – an opportunity to celebrate Sir Frederick Banting, who discovered #insulin along with Charles Best.
Why not celebrate Banting’s birthday with a donation to support more life-saving diabetes research? https://t.co/HQNsK6nYk2
Eli Lilly’s entire business model is to price gouge insulin and hold diabetics’ lives hostage for profit bc we HAVE TO BUY INSULIN AT ANY PRICE OR WE DIE. This is the extortionate foundation the company was built on.
Nationalize @LillyPad and make insulin free.
