This is an excellent point. Considering the current US political environment, all sorts of scenarios present themselves. Over the last couple of years I have had opportunities to assess our healthcare system and have concluded, the whole thing is about money in US. And, the insurance companies are controlling EVERYTHING. During a recent broken arm scenario I became even more aware of what happens and began reasoning...WHY???. Once you ask that question and analyze steps/actions in the process ...it all fits. The U.S. medical system is CONTROLLED by the insurance companies and it is all based on money. Everything else that happens is just activity to support that basic process requirement.
The insurance companies stand to lose a significant revenue flow w/the success of AVXL. We need to pay attention here and to not assume everyone actually wants to see effective CNS treatments. I understand that sounds nuts but ...just watch and ask WHY.
