Donanemab is not recommended by NICE for cognitive impairment or dementia caused by Alzheimer's. This is due to limited benefits and high costs, including monthly infusions and intensive side effect monitoring, therefore it not good use for the taxpayer: nice.org.uk/news/articles/…

@dr_shibley Can never fathom the popular own goal of "we got a lot of attention and nothing improved . . . so please give us more attention"

Concerning because this work has been used to support the alpha synuclein biological definition and the value of the seed assay @pash22 Did a top NIH official manipulate Alzheimer's and Parkinson’s studies for decades? | Science | AAAS science.org/content/articl…

Hey all of you doing your best in the hardest of contexts to support people living with dementia to live as well as possible today, you’re ‘servicing the problem’ according to @alzheimerssoc Director of Income & Engagement 👇
Alex Hyde-Smith@AlexHydeSmith

If you only see dementia as being about people experiencing it today, rather than also considering the experience of future generations, then it’s worth checking whether it’s cos you’re servicing the problem, rather than also trying to solve it?!

@JamesRuFletcher @SameiHuda @nchadborn I think Neil has taken himself off Twitter. No, it was at the tail end of their webinar last week (not asked by Neil in person, but 'read out'). He didn't refer to you by name, but the question was a generic one which spoke to your concerns.

A little late to the #WAD party but if you scroll deep down in the World Alzheimer Report 2024 you'll find a more critical stance👇 (QT because I can't reply to you for some reason!) alzint.org/resource/world…

@ProfRobHoward @SameiHuda This has been a known issue for some time - see work of @JamesRuFletcher - that, as James described, corporate charities raise awareness for themselves by blaming a lack of awareness about dementia, which they also say is responsible for stigma.
