Clinical trials are administered in various ways. They can be using medication, intravenously, transfusion, stem cell replacemen etc....There is no cost incurred to the patient and a reimbursement for the day is usually allotted.

It was determined "globally, governments were the largest source of spending on HIV/AIDS in 2015, contributing $29.8 billion or 61 percent of total spending on HIV/AIDS.

I completely agree with you.
The big Pharmaceuticals make billions on treatments, that then cause other issues. So, we - those trying to survive and live our normal lives, become beholden to more… read more
