Johnson & Johnson is currently, like right this minute, trying to extend their patent on the TB drug bedaquiline, keeping it out of generic for another four years. TB killed about 30,000 people last week and is the world's deadliest infectious disease.

If this drug does not go generic now it could affect 6 million people in the next four years (the time it would take the "new" patent to run out). Out of those millions of people who get TB, but can't get bedaquiline, most of them will die. From a PREVENTABLE DISEASE.

Why is this happening? Money. But also, because TB is not an issue in countries like the US. We can afford its $1.50 a pill price. But if you live in a poor country, that's too much money to spend on something you need to take for up to four months.

J&J needs to let this drug go public and do its job in places that can't currently afford it. They need to help people, instead of trying to wring the last few drops of money out of one of their many products, at the cost of human lives. @sizzlingsandwichperfection-blog does a waaaay better job of explaining this than me. Check out the video and the video description for links and ways to help!

Ladies don't want gym bros, they want Matthew Williams wearing a loose white long-sleeve blouse men used to wear back then, submerged in water surrounded with flowers or antique items, with Hozier playing in the background

So Johnson & Johnson's patent on the life-saving TB drug bedaquiline is about to expire and they're STILL trying to extend it via a loophole, preventing more affordable generic brand versions of the drug from being produced, for another 4 years.

In those 4 year, millions of people will die due to lack of access and affordability.

Please submit an ethics report to J&J via:

And signal boost everywhere else you can.

what if old man link..... had an angry ghost au

Send me an AU and I'll tell you what my muse would be like in that AU | ✿

🌸｡*ﾟ+. You know what, I used to have a ghost AU for Time, and I think it would better suit First so much better, so let's make some adjustments here and there and--

Link Löwe was a soul taken too soon, having fallen ill at a young age before, inevitably, passing away from his illness. Tuberculosis was a terrible thing for his time, after all. At least, that was what the doctor had said to be the cause. The timing couldn't have been worse, though when it comes to suddenly dying, when was there a right time?

Link was fighting tooth and nail for he and his sister's right of inheritance to their father's estate. Unfortunately, with him out of the way, and many a loophole available to leap through, the inheritance unfortunately went towards their father's latest wife.

What the doctors didn't divulge was the true cause of Link's passing: Poison.

Clinging to the earth with every bit of his will, having to watch his sister be kicked out house and home, and learning the true cruelty behind his downfall, Link's spirit grew angry and restless. Ensuring his wrath was felt from beyond the grave, it wasn't long before the luxurious manor was deemed condemned, the reasoning for on paper labeling it an unsafe structure.

With the manor now abandoned, Link remains alone, successful in winning over what had been rightfully his-- and his sister's. Unfortunately, she wouldn't live to enjoy the empty home, leaving the spirit feeling bitter and angrier at the injustice of it all. With her having not joined him in the afterlife, there wasn't even a reunion to look forward too.

Too angry to rest, Link still remains haunting the old estate, chasing away any other living person from his property, should they dare attempt at claiming it. The estate had a reputation of being impossible to sell, left to rot and decay over witness's accounts of it being haunted by the devil himself. Convinced he would eternally remain alone in the estate, Link found himself growing lax over the years, gradually feeling himself calm and, perhaps, find himself crossing over soon enough.

Until one day he saw a bright, tricolored sign with the words SOLD written in big, bold letters.

And that familiar rage burned within his hollow chest once more.

but did you see the picture of Seokjin going around twitter where he’s wearing the same lv jacket but now he looks bigger 😵‍💫 releasing Seokjin from the military might not help but instead end us

one of my cursed jk discord posts was "i hope he gets a bleached buzzcut once he's out of the military" so maybe it's for the best that they all stay in there for a while
