: TalkLeftAction Alert : Biogen Denying Cancer Drug to Fred Baron
By Jeralyn
Remember Fred Baron, the financier in the midst of the John Edwards-Rielle Hunter story?
He was diagnosed last week with multiple myeloma and given a week to live. There's a drug, Tsyabri, that's an exact match for him and the FDA has okayed it and requests have been made by Lance Armstrong, Bill Clinton, John Kerry and others to provide it and the CEO of Biotech is refusing.
Read his son's letter (Andrew is the founder of Rocketboom)and do what you can to add to the pressure. The drug is readily available, it's just not prescribed for myeloma.
