The blockbuster weight loss drug sold as Ozempic and Wegovy [has, on 21 March, gone] generic in countries that are home to 40 percent of the world’s population, significantly lowering the price of a costly medicine that had been largely unaffordable to nearly all but the wealthiest people. On Saturday, Novo Nordisk, the company that until now has had a monopoly on selling the drug, will lose patent protection in several of the world’s most populous countries. The first generic versions are expected to arrive in India as soon as this weekend. In the coming months, the generics are also expected to become available in China, Canada, Brazil, Turkey and South Africa.
you do realize he mentions ADHD? i’m sure you don’t mean to but your comment implies the mentally ill can just pull themselves up by their bootstraps
Then treat it.
I am more than familiar with people like him. I have had relationships with people who made endless excuses, and refused to manage their conditions, and then of course, told me it was my fault. As if I was supposed to magically cure them of all their mental and physical issues… that they actively embraced and enhanced by poor habits and recreational drug use.
When it comes to mental and physical health, yes you do have to pull yourself up. Nobody can do it for you. Nobody can fix my health problems for me. It’s my responsibility to manage them. Or I suppose I could just give up, and be a twat about it and incessantly whine to whomever will listen to my self-imposed misery. And go around taking random internet comments as personal attacks on myself… lol
Read my post properly and you might see why treating it is a problem.
You need to stop ignoring the bits that counter your argument because it is making you look ignorant.
And i can’t get over that whole point you are trying to make about people (me in this case) making it all about themselves when you are doing exactly that. You are imposing your narrowminded and ignorant view poi t on everyone else. Hilariously, no one agrees. You are on your own on this one.
Please do us all a favour. Read and critically analyse this comment thread. Be self critical, look at it from a view point that is not your own. And understand that my offering a personal anecdote, in contrary to your view is not “an attack” it is not me taking your nonsense as a personal attack on me. It is just me trying to introduce some nuance. Something you may not know.
Isnt the point of these message boards to have discussions with real people from around the world? Are you really on a social media platform pretending you don’t care what other people think?
Wild that mate…
don’t worry nobody here is taking anything as a personal attack, you just repeat ableist rhetoric that is used to attack anyone with a handicap and i want to make that clear for anybody else reading it
be more of a .ml user. are you a tankie too? you think Chinese communism is going to magically improve your personal problems too?
I think they meant it.
