The Australian government wants to force patients with the disease aHUS who have been receiving the life-saving drug Soliris for the last 2 years, to stop this medication in December 2016. They are going to experiment with the lives of these patients to save money, not lives.
aHUS, is a genetic, chronic, life-threatening blood disease that leads to major organ failure (typically the kidneys) and can lead to death. There is no cure. Stopping medication arbitrarily after 2 years makes no medical sense. The decision to stop should be made by the doctor along with the patient, not the government!
So please sign the following petition to pressure the Australian government to NOT stop access to Soliris. You can make a difference!
