FDA Approves New Treatment for Alzheimer's Disease
looorg writes:The FDA has approved a new drug for Alzheimer's disease, while not a cure it is supposed to slow the decline. Even though data is not entirely positive or straight forward in its interpretation or that it will actually even work as thought.But if you have it then you are probably desperate enough to try almost anything that claims to work, until you get to the price tag of $56,000 per year. That will probably make it out of reach for most people, it's doubtful if any insurance will cover something like this. Perhaps you can just forget to pay the bill, they might understand due to your condition.

This shipping things back and forth — isn't this one of the points of failure that has been experienced during COVID-19?Original SubmissionRead more of this story at SoylentNews.
