Our legislation to cap insulin co-pays at $35/month (SB 40) just passed the Senate Health Committee. People should never have to ration insulin. We need to make sure people can afford it.

Thank you to our American Diabetes Association team for your advocacy to help us advance this critical bill!

I’m not a warrior. I’m tired.
Unfortunate to see today’s news from Vertex about their VX-264 therapy for #T1D but this is why we always have ‘multiple shots on goal’!

Considering that the same cells are being used as in VX-880 (so far great data) it’s reasonable to assume that the device encapsulation was the problem here.

Public health is dead, the NIH is gutted, the environment is screwed, the job market is tenuous, but at least eggs are getting more expensive?
