my mother used to say "life sucks and then you die"

except if you're #JNJ and have the opportunity to allow people to continue to suck you NEED TO TAKE THAT OPPORTUNITY.

they've recouped their portion of the investment over the 20 year patent on #Bedaquiline as a treatment for #Tuberculosis and #MDRTB. when the patent expires, it's time for the drug to be produced generically at a lower cost to create higher availability and save hundreds of thousands of lives.

#PatientsNotPatents

Johnson & Johnson is poised to kill hundreds of thousands of people with treatable #Tuberculosis by exploiting loopholes in order to extend their monopoly on the drug #Bedaquiline after already having had 20 years of patent protection.

J&J think you won’t care because it’ll mostly be impoverished people in poor countries who will die. Prove them wrong.

This is not rocket science.
