If you live in one of the 21 countries in Europe that have access to #Kaftrio please advocate for those still dealing with #cysticfibrosis without modulators. Email your CF association & Vertex Pharma. Urge them to work with every country to make worldwide access a reality.

These meds are for a child with #cysticfibrosis. As things stand, when that child hits adulthood in England he will have to pay for his prescriptions. This is because when the exemption list was drawn up most people with CF didn't live to adulthood #Reviewthelist Sir Jeremy Hunt MP

I saw England as a place for hope.. one of the few places that have access to better cf care and medication.. we deal with survival everyday.. we shouldn't have to struggle for medication to keep us alive #ReviewTheList keep the hope alive #cfcantwait
