Anybody shocked that the senators involved in voting for diabetes research funding have never even heard of Afrezza or inhaled insulin? I'm not, but that just goes to show you how unknown this is to the rest of the population.
Also from listening to this, these are people responsible for getting dexcom covered by medicare correct? What does it take to get Afrezza covered?

I watched the video of the testimony and questions. This was a big day for MannKind and Afrezza. Every time a US Senator mentioned inhaled insulin, I thought to myself well here is a thumb in your eye Sanofi. Folks this was a widely covered event and now US Senators know about inhaled insulin. How much commercial time was that worth? A bunch!

Wow I just finished watching the 2 segments 17 minutes in and 1 hour and 10 minutes in. This is huge! The House was full of diabetics, activist, parents ,and senators pushing for better health care for Diabetics. This is a Big day for Afrezza and this was televised as well. So many people watching and commenting on the hearing and you can bet as of this at least 100,000 diabetics just heard of a new inhaled insulin from watching this. All diabetics that are really up to date on new technology and watching this just may have learned about Afrezza. Great great great.. Thanks Harry

If anyone had a doubt...no one knew. It's not like they heard it wasn't any good. Or not safe. Or didn't work! Agree with ever word pro! Big big day for Afrezza and PWD. Can you imagine all those kids thinking.. what is that? Do you really want a pump when there is something that works faster, better, and let's you be spontaneous:-))

No shots, no pump, I could be spontaneous!! "Also someone requested I post: That we should send Sparks comments to newspapers and magazine science editors. Afrezza would make a great cover for Time magazine." I sure agree with that!

What a nice stroke of luck that the senator actually asked about it.
I would imagine that decision makers within a lot of healthcare organizations might watch the testimony at some point.
