Hi guys!  The listserv administrator thought my message was spam, I assume based on the subject line, so I’m trying again.  I apologize for going off-topic here, but this is important to me, I hope you’ll forgive me.
My granddaughter has severe allergies and needs to have an EpiPen with her at all times, so she needs to have one for school, one for home, one for travel and so on.  You’ve probably heard about the outrageous price increase which would mean her family would have to spend several thousand dollars a year to have enough EpiPens current.

So I signed a petition to Heather Bresch, CEO of Mylan which says:

"Stop price-gouging the millions of people who need an EpiPen to save their lives if they have a severe allergic reaction."

Thanks!

This is definitely not spam and this raising of the price of the EpiPen is unconcinable considering that a reaction to an allergy without the use of this drug can mean immediate death for a person. In another email I received from move on, there are citations of the sources validating the need for the petition Bloomberg and the New York Times to name two.
