PFAM Helps Coordinate Largest-Ever Insulin Pricing Demonstration

Posted on Fri, 10/19/2018 - 8:52am

People of Faith for Access to Medicines was proud to partner with our close ally T1International to coordinate history’s largest demonstration protesting the skyrocketing costs of insulin. Over 80 persons affected by diabetes raised their voices on September 30th outside of insulin manufacturer Eli Lilly and Company headquarters. For a video account of the demonstration, go here. And for one of the several news accounts of the moving and powerful action, go here. With people suffering and dying because they cannot afford insulin priced at $285 a vial--even though it is manufactured for around five dollars--there will be more cause and opportunity for action, until there is #insulin4all!

Access to healthcare is a moral imperative and a human right

  • 100 million Americans are uninsured or underinsured
  • Two-thirds of Americans each year skip treatment or medicines due to cost
  • People are suffering, even dying, needlessly

There are proven solutions to fix our broken system.
People of faith can help build the movement for lifesaving reform.
