This was from their FB page I believe. I don't have FB. But most of the answers to all the questions are right here on PB. It's like playing that old card game, Concentration. You just have to remember what thread they are under. In this case it's page one of this thread:-) ok so its an old update from feb or so..I thought this was the latest update from may... confusing - i am sure it was for others too No, sorry. it was meant to answer the question, are they using Afrezza? And how they plan on doing it. The most recent up-date is most likely on their FB page.

www.healthline.com/diabetesmine/afrezza-news-updates#2New Local Diabetes Care Centers: MannKind's is working with new healthcare company VDEX (which stands for "Victory Over Dextros") that is setting up clinical care and teaching centers across the U.S. These centers will be devoted to providing affordable local diabetes education, testing and supplies. They'll offer a number of treatment options, but definitely plan to highlight Afrezza as a treatment of choice. They plan to launch this summer with two locations on the West Coast -- including Sherman Oaks, CA, where MannKind is headquartered. Thecenters will be primarily located next to existing urgent care facilities but eventually also in retail centers offer after-hours availability, staffed by nurse practitioners and consulting endos and medical assistants. VDEX execs tells us the new centers will have a "different aura" than standard doctors' offices, with a hospitality focus where PWDs are referred to as "guests" rather than "patients."

So does this mean the East Coast ones are on hold? I though the East Coast centers were opening first as they are months behind the planned openings. Either way it seems like progress but just curious about what happened to the east coast locations.

I thought Matt claimed they have nothing to do with VDEX, are we supposed to believe this is coincidental?

I thought Matt claimed they have nothing to do with VDEX, are we supposed to believe this is coincidental? He did. Maybe diabetes mine got it wrong or maybe MNKD saw value in the idea. It would make sense to do it closer to home or in a high diabetic area.

Sherman Oaks is not where MannKind's HQ is located. That's 26 miles away in Valencia. Compared to New Jersey it's close, but not hometown close.

I just read at MNKD's mobile version of its corp site that it has also an office in NJ beside Dansbury and Valencia. Is that a new one? The website is old and outdated. investors.mannkindcorp.com/secfiling.cfm?filingID=1193125-14-406347&CIK=899460 (Form 10-K Annual Report Filed Mar 3, 2014) We lease approximately 23,000 square feet of office space in Paramus, New Jersey pursuant to a lease that expires in May 2014. The facility houses our medical, regulatory affairs, clinical operations and administrative staff. It was stated in some webcasts a long time ago that some people working there went to Sanofi and others were let go after FDA approval. MNKD's work their was done and any other trials etc were going to be continued by Sanofi.

Man you guys are so serious lol I was having funI dont know about the rest of you all, but the words "fun" and "MannKind" have not meshed since I have been invested. The "Outsulin man" has been the only "fun" thing to come around. Major props to Castagna for continuously staying active, showing support, and being innovative. He has drank the koolaid.
