Patient-led campaign to ensure vital cancer immunotherapy treatments are funded by all Irish health insurance providers.

My name is Bernard and I live in Ireland. I have stage 4 gastric cancer. Based on the best scientific and clinical evidence, my consultants recommend Immunotherapy and chemotherapy. However my healthcare insurer refuses to cover immunotherapy. Am I alone? Are you in the same situation?
Today was the "soft-launch" of our media campaign to get all Irish health insurers fund cancer immunotherapy #FundImmuno . I have been overwhelmed with the support (over 5000 shares in a day, just on LinkedIn). Thank you.
@LayaHealthcare do us right

A low-key kick-off to our Irish campaign 1) for all Irish health insurers to provide access to cancer immunotherapies recommended by our oncologists immediately; 2) for fair access to immunotherapies in the public system; 3) Ireland to tax plan for future CAR-T & miRNA therapy.
