Could not agree more Bioexec! Need him on a road show in all the territories that we have reps. Have reps invite both doctors and patients who are on afrezza and those who are not. Have them at family style restaurants where the portions are large and add only one thing to his presentation, Sam and/ or Eric etc at a table with a camera on them and their cgm’s so the audience can see continuously what they are eating and what their bg is during the presentation. Announce at start of presentation what their bg is and have them come up after presentation to tell what they ate and what bg is. And everyone who shows up that is interested in afrezza should get 6 months at cost if they want a script. Have the spirometer on site.
Having a tour like this would be worth the expense in my opinion.
Could also do above as an informercial.

Not a chance (even though I like the way you think). First of all, Dr. Pettis has focused interests related to venues of his choice and I very much doubt you'd get him to do a "road show". Secondly, even if MannKind were able to secure his permission, company reps cannot disseminate a video of his presentation during a sales presentation without a nod from the FDA. TCOYD operates as an independent diabetes advocacy group and their actions are not subject to FDA restrictions any more than V-Dex videos are.  |

I thought he was pushing for the success of Afrezza. Does it offend him when shareholders help drive that success? |

I don’t think that’s it, I think that he sees that there’s no marketing and basically Harry does most of it on Twitter. So maybe, can’t speak for him..what offends him is the lack of it. |

I agree, there is no question where Harry stands on the product and it's eventual success. He is tireless in this regard! Many thanks to you both for your work patients, and tenacity. |

Actually shareholders are owners of team and mike is more like the General Manager and Dr K is the offensive coach. 😂

"I admit it, I inhale" would be a great tag line for a new Afrezza commercial. Actor 1: "I am a Type 1 diabetic and for my daily insulin needs, I take one daily injection of basal insulin and for my mealtime insulin, I...I... "I admit it, I inhale!" Actor 2: "I inhale!" Actor 3: "I inhale!" Narrator: "If you have Type 1 diabetes and are considering other options than injecting your mealtime insulin, ask your doctor if Afrezza may be right for you. Because when it comes to mealtime insulin..." Actor 1: "I inhale." Actor 2: "I inhale." Insert Actor 4 (Bill Clinton) and Actor 5 (Hillary Clinton) Bill:"I admit it, I inhale!' Hillary" (After punching Bill in the shoulder): "Bill, you don't even have diabetes!" Bill smiles and shrugs.  |

I like the way he thinks! I am a bit more patient....June 2020, it's either that long awaited much discussed phantom party in Vegas, or Mikey better put on another pool boy! All kidding aside, that is my forecast for our long awaited success. I've only been wrong a couple times.  (But, I have been wrong for a longggggg time!) |

That video just debunked the 5 big afrezza myths
1. dosing is hard to learn - What I heard is bag of chips take a small. Sandwich take a medium. Bowl of pasta take a large.
2. follow up dosing is a huge issue - What I heard is follow-ups provide more control and are carefree
3. the spirometry is a big issue - What I heard is it takes a few seconds right in the doctors office
4. the cough is a show stopper - what I heard is it goes away for most people in a month
5. your lungs will explode - What I heard is it has proven to be very safe

Not a big fan of him saying "... at first it's like inhaling sand. haha" Might need to tweak that a bit.  |
