Better access to essential treatment

Hello I had hep C via a blood transfusion many years ago whilst serving in the armed forces but only discovered this 3 years ago. My experience with the NHS and hep C trust was very confusing and contradictory making it very difficult for me to make any decisions.

Last year I was given the latest treatment and within 3 months was cleared, I have joined a campaigned called justtreatment and we are looking at ways of ensuring essential treatments when available are available to everyone immediately.

As part of this campaign we are lining for stories from people that have suffered unnecessary due to slow actions of the government to acquire the best medication , we intend to use these stories to hold the government and pharmaceutical companies accountable for the damage caused to people and their friends and family. The information can be anonymous if you wish but it is so important we make the government and pharmaceutical companies aware of the human cost their actions in either not using thief powers to produce generic effective medication or the cost of pricing the treatment at such crazy pricing to make insane profits.

Please contact me if you are happy to share your story at braschpoland@gmail.com

To find out more go to the justtreatment website

Thanks

Simon Brasch
