Every day, millions of people around the world who rely on insulin to survive cannot access or afford it. In 2025, we organized, met with decision-makers, and built power. Our new 2025 Impact Report shares the stories behind this work, read more at https://t.co/5pQAiaEM5n

.@EliLillyandCo just became a trillion-dollar company while families still lose loved ones because insulin is too expensive.
We refuse to accept this. Join the movement demanding accountability and #insulin4all.

Insulin is as essential as oxygen, yet 1 in 3 people rationed it last year due to cost. The insulin price crisis isn’t over. Stop listening to Big Pharma—listen to patients. See T1International’s latest survey and support the fight:

2024 World Diabetes Day saw T1I advocates rally for insulin accessibility. Global Advocate Janice joined groups like MSF, Santé Diabète, and more to demand Novo Nordisk drop insulin pen prices to $1. WA's #insulin4all chapter also protested in Seattle. Thanks for supporting! #WWD

Scientists who discovered #insulin over 100 years ago envisioned a world where everyone could access diabetes treatment. Yet today, these corporations which ‘improve people lives worldwide’ stand in the way of millions who need life-saving medicine. Today, our message is clear.

[Doctors Without Borders (MSF) Southern Africa @MSF_southafrica]

Today, on #WorldDiabetesDay, we are calling on @novonordisk, @sanofi, and @EliLillyandCo to take urgent action to increase access to diabetes medical tools in LMICs by immediately making insulin pen injection devices available at US$1 per pen (R17,81). https://t.co/Miq2Ig0RET

[MSF Access @MSF_access]

On 23 Sept, we wrote letters to @NovoNordisk, @Sanofi & @EliLillyandCo asking them to make lifesaving insulin pens available at $1/pen (which costs them $0.94 each to make, btw). Here's what we think of their responses🖍️

And quick reminder: insulin only costs a few dollars to manufacture.https://t.co/PFSLTn1fZK Reducing US insulin prices to Canadian or UK levels would have saved taxpayers in the US as much as $19.5 billion in 2019 (92%)

New research from @LizSchrier @awgaffney @swoolhandler and others that gives us lots of data to support our advocacy for #insulin4all price caps, not copay caps in the US 🧵

[Shaina Kasper @ShainaKasper]

Taxpayers should help people get access to essential medications, not subsidizing #BigPharma's greed. Congress can ensure that insulin is affordable and accessible to all and not a drain on taxpayers by implementing an insulin price cap. #insulin4all

A lot of anger at Lina Khan is that she does extremely basic stuff like letting members of the public submit information about mergers.

Big business doesn't want competence in government, so they make up bullshit like she has weird antitrust theories. https://t.co/o3ZU1y3lNM

This is amazing news for #insulin4all in Pakistan where Big Three insulin manufacturers are stopping distributing insulin. Insulin will be delivered to children with #t1d in three regions in Punjab. Thank you @MeethiZindagi for your incredible work in #access2meds
