There’s been a lot of news around #COVID19 vaccines! As distribution begins, MDA is pleased to lead 19 partner orgs across the NMD community in advocating to over 55 states & localities urging officials to prioritize access for the #neuromuscular community bit.ly/COVID19-Advoca…

#ICYMI #MDA released an FAQ about the #COVID19 vaccine answering your questions on how it impacts the #NMD community as we continue to advocate for priority access for people living with #musculardystrophy, #ALS & related #neuromuscular diseases. mda.org/covid19#vaccine

🙌Last night Congress passed end-of-year legislation, which includes the No Surprises Act! This bill goes a long way in protecting patients from surprise medical bills. A big THANKS to all our advocates who worked so hard this year to #StopSurpriseBills!

Congress also enacted a 4-yr extension of the Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher program, extending a valuable program that incentivizes drug development in pediatric #NMD, such as #Duchenne, #SMA, & more. A HUGE thank you to all the advocates who made this possible!

Exciting news!
