Let’s stop avoidable deaths in NZ. Sign this petition for better health care funding for Pharmac

Dana from Richmond

Did you know that NZ’s spend on medicine is the lowest of comparable OECD countries?

Or that in the last 5 years there were 3631 avoidable deaths due to a shortfall in funding for medicines?

How about that if you have advanced breast cancer and live outside of New Zealand you are twice as … View more
Did you know that NZ’s spend on medicine is the lowest of comparable OECD countries?

Or that in the last 5 years there were 3631 avoidable deaths due to a shortfall in funding for medicines?

How about that if you have advanced breast cancer and live outside of New Zealand you are twice as likely to survive?

For more information visit: fairnessinfocus.co.nz...

Australia funds 103 medicines that NZ does not have access to.

Is it fair that Kiwi women and men face worse health outcomes than patients in other comparable countries?

Maori women with breast cancer are 37% more likely to die than non-Maori.

As a breast cancer survivor I am committed to campaigning for others so they can have the best access to health care they deserve.

If you are concerned about the underfunding of Pharmac and avoidable deaths in NZ then sign this petition now on this a link...

Bowel Cancer – You’re never too young

Bowel Cancer

Bowel cancer can strike at any age. Each year about 3,000 New Zealanders are diagnosed with the disease and more than 1,200 will die. That’s as many as breast and prostate cancer combined. But it is treatable – and beatable – if detected early enough. Check your symptoms
