BC health minister dismisses Batten disease drug appeal
In North Vancouver BC, Health Minister Josie Osborne announced no change to the expert committee decision that Brineura will not be renewed for Charleigh Pollock, a nine year old with Batten disease. The family says the ruling disregards their daughter's life and seeks private funding options while BC maintains its independent, evidence based drug review process.
