Jayasree K. Iyer in Der Tagesspiegel: 'Fehlender Zugang zu Insulin'

The article, headlined "Fehlender Zugang zu Insulin: Zu viele Patienten müssen unnötig leiden," lays out current issues in access to insulin, and some of the key challenges ahead. 

Jayasree argues that governments and pharmaceutical companies must do their part to increase access to insulin in low- and middle-income countries – including not just older forms of human insulin, but also the innovative analog insulins which are increasingly becoming the preferred choice of both diabetes patients and doctors. To reach this goal, chronic problems in the insulin market must be addressed.
