    Yeah it sucks for you Americans over there.

    Hopefully it will pave the road for lots of other similar treatments and also bring prices under control.

      It will bring prices under control for the manufacturers, which will raise their profit margin while they keep the prices sky high.

      Also, lets not forget that our paying, or rather our insurance, paying absurd prices for drugs is what has long subsidized the rest of the world’s cheap drugs. It’s why drug companies fight so hard to keep America from lowering drug prices - it’d completely destroy their profit margins and they’d be relegated to being mere multimillionaires instead of multibillionaires.

        Euh, it’s because your market is totally deregulated compared to the EU for example. You’re not paying for us, all the non needed benefits go in the pockets of the ultra rich.
