TBFighters went to Danaher's door today with a simple message: it's #TimeFor5, to release their audit, and put #PeopleOverProfits. If 600 emails in one day aren't enough to make our voices heard, we'll just keep shouting louder! tbfighters.org/action

Sad that this is necessary, but this seems like very good advice for my US friends

To everyone in a similar scenario: the tactic my doctor's office has taught me is to ask, in writing, for:
1) the name, board specialty, and license number of the doctor making the determination the treatment was not medically necessary;

It’s high time that Danaher make good on its commitment to sell lifesaving tests at cost. #TBSky
Danaher promised to release an audit of the cost of production of their GeneXpert tests. Over a year later, they still haven't made the audit public.
Just so they don't forget, we've added a new feature to tbfighters.org. No need to thank us, Danaher!

"Please be ready for some of those impacts, including downed trees, power lines, and even some power outages"
Another weather report just before the #LAFires mentioned that LA was in a drought, and spoke of "very high fire danger" but ultimately downplayed the risks

"It's going to be an extreme fire condition event the next couple of days... but look at this beautiful sunrise coming to us from Malibu right now"
The weather forecasters warned about the #LAFires, but also downplayed the risk, as though not even they could imagine what was about to happen...

I know it's way past New Years, but I just wanted to repost this for the #TBSky folks who are emerging from their burrows and missed this amazing collab.
Through centuries, Auld Lang Syne has been sung alongside wars, injustice, innovation, and joy. Still, #Tuberculosis remains. This year, join us in hope for a world without TB, where tests are available to all. It's #TimeFor5! www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdcN...

When I was a kid, around 1,800,000 people died every year of tuberculosis. Now, around 1,250,000 do.
That's important progress. But at this current rate, it'll take a CENTURY to push TB deaths much below 500,000 per year. That's totally unacceptable for a curable, preventable disease.
