Women who petitioned Parliament get nothing from PHARMAC
19 December 2018 - Women who petitioned Parliament get nothing from PHARMAC’s Santa
Women who stood on the steps of Parliament in October to present petitions to MPs calling for the funding of two important breast cancer medicines have been given a setback by PHARMAC for Christmas.
The petitions called for funding for Ibrance and Kadcyla, and were presented after a march to Parliament by more than 100 women representing Metavivors, a group of women with advanced breast cancer seeking access to vital medicines, and their supporters.
