Bravo Dr. Jennifer Ashton, medical correspondent for CBS on her report regarding the Hepatitis C virus on the Today Show the other morning.
I'm sure we all recall the original diagnosis, the fear, our education and then the education of others who may be afraid to contract the virus from us. Even then, after months of education it only took one fool of a TV doctor to undo months and months of education as to how this virus is spread. Dr. Ashton delivered the most honest, straightforward report I've personally ever heard a television doctor deliver. As I sat watching, my mouth agape in wonder, I recognized a member here in her reporting of the newly approved Hep C drugs.
I haven't been to the forum for many months. Checking in here this morning I see no mention. Surely I am not the only one who saw this report. If so, perhaps there is a reason it isn't mentioned, so I shall keep the member anonymous. But, bravo dear member. You did a mighty fine job.
Best to all,
