Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to go along the same lines as Dr. Eyolfson with regard to his questions on diabetes and insulin.
I'm a bit confused here. First of all, Sir Frederick Banting gifted his insulin to the world. I just don't understand why it's so expensive and why these pharmaceuticals are charging so much. They didn't have any R and D, or not much, and to charge what they are charging, they're obviously just trying to make a profit. Is there no pharmaceutical company out there that will have a kind heart and develop this insulin at a relatively reasonable price?
