Thanks for the links Tig,

There is another article on the Financial Times, linked through Yahoo News communicating an urgency on behalf of the FDA to work quickly to approve Abbivie and others to promote market competition for Gilead, and ultimately drive cost down. 

It can't come soon enough for me! Lol

It will be interesting to see the new combos that will clear us all of HCV. Have a great day EVERYONE!

Hi Everyone,

I was watching the news this morning and FOX News had a report delivered on their Sunday Housecall segment on the new treatment opportunity with Sovaldi. I wanted to share their video segment but am unable to find it. But I did find this information via links on their website and thought you might be interested to know that even the WHO (World Health Organization) is commenting on the price structure of Gilead's Sovaldi. The BBC News link was also part of that report. Happy reading!
