I dunno. $2,000,000.00 would pay for a lot of free abortions.

Before the drug, the only choice was misery and death.

I thinking sleeping on a mattress filled with $2MM would be the best sleep ever.

They don't have this in Canada.
You think your insurance covers it? They have rich people in Canada too.
The developed world's developed healthcare systems though actually will pay for it, after the approvals process, since 4 years or so of palliative care with the current frontline treatment is simply more expensive. Plus we all get the not-rubes-in-the-US discount. Then it'll just be the majority of americans who can't get it. But don't worry, there's always crowdfunding if your sick kid is cute enough.

From Article wrote:Novartis said it will let insurers make payments over five years, at $425,000 per year, and will give partial rebates if the drug doesn’t work.
Seriously? Partial rebates? For that price it better fucking work.

So in about 12 years, when they can produce a generic version, that will cost what $200K?

Spinraza, approved in late 2016, requires infusion into the spinal canal every four months. Its list price of $750,000 for the initial year and $375,000 annually thereafter was also deemed excessive by Icer.
