Vidaza in UK?
 
Hi all,
Now the authorities in UK are forced to rethink on Vidaza for MDS.

For this reevaluation they will use updated quality-of-life data and consider the cost of low-dose chemotherapy as an alternative treatment, which they did not do the previous time. It's hard to put a value on people's health and lives to make determinations like this (I certainly wouldn't want to be on a cost watchdog panel) but I guess that's what they are tasked with doing.
