Absolutely Elianne Moene. And we have a good screening test that can be used in low resource settings, the GeneXpert HPV test. Unfortunately priced by Danaher Corporation at $14.90 … 3x more than it should be. #TimeFor5

18 investors - with over $400 billion in assets - have sent an open letter to Danaher Corporation requesting full transparency of the audit to validate Cepheid cost of production of GeneXpert tests. This is a no brainer right Danaher Corporation? #TimeFor5 iccr.org/reports/invest…

Revenues from Danaher Corporation diagnostics business rose 7 % to $2.53 billion in Q1. And Cepheid revenues increased in the DOUBLE-DIGIT % range. You can't say there is no room to reduce prices of Cepheid's lifesaving tests for LMICs. #TimeFor5 360dx.com/business-news/…

True! And your price drop of the test in Sep 2023 was also a watershed moment. And you know how you can be even more impactful Cepheid? Reduce the prices of your tests for XDR-TB, HIV, Hep and all other diseases in your HBDC program as well. We know you can do it. #TimeFor5

TB tests CAN be more affordable, if they were priced based on the actual cost of goods and a reasonable profit. World Health Organization (WHO)'s TPPs emphasize the need to reach all individuals in need of testing, with price being one of its main barriers. #PeopleOverProfit iris.who.int/bitstream/hand…

How do companies like Cepheid & Danaher Corporation price their tests? Not based on transparent pricing and transparency in how much it costs to produce. Disclosing the cost of production are key to fair pricing. ⏰ We are still waiting for Cepheid's promised audit. #TimeFor5
