Friday night hike…. My favorite way to unwind…

A low-key kick-off to our Irish campaign 1) for all Irish health insurers to provide access to cancer immunotherapies recommended by our oncologists immediately; 2) for fair access to immunotherapies in the public system; 3) Ireland to tax plan for future CAR-T & miRNA therapy.

@FundImmuno Bernie, I’m gutted for you and your family and disgusted you have to contend with fighting for treatment too. @LayaHealthcare do what’s right and fund this for all who need it

My name is Bernard, living in Ireland. I have stage 4 stomach cancer. My medical consultants recommend Immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Despite best scientific and clinical evidence, my Irish healthcare insurer won't fund this. Am I alone?

Today was the "soft-launch" of our media campaign to get all Irish health insurers fund cancer immunotherapy #FundImmuno . I have been overwhelmed with the support (over 5000 shares in a day, just on LinkedIn). Thank you. @LayaHealthcare do us right!

🧵 1/@LayaHealthcare why are you not funding life saving EMA approved immunotherapy (that is funded by @VHI) for my colleague Prof Bernie Mahon @FundImmuno ? All Laya customers should be aware of this? @DonnellyStephen @SimonHarrisTD @NSAI_Standards @MichealMartinTD @HIAuthority
