I looked at several Rio de Janeiro pharmacies and found afrezza at two of them -- I posted links earlier. Neither offered the 4U dose. I tried using the pharmacy search engine on that website www.maissaudebiomm.com and couldn't even find a pharmacy that carries afrezza, which makes me wonder why they even bother to have the search engine. Why don't they just list the pharmacies carrying it? Okay, so it may be that Biomm offers 4Us (as the article suggests), but that some pharmacies don't want to stock every offering to start?

I still don't understand why they decided not to offer the 4U dose. Are you sure? It says: "the drug will be marketed in three dosages (4, 8 and 12 international units of insulin), in packs of 90 and 180 refills".

Another trademark! And yet, some people complain that Mannkind is doing nothing, or content with resting on its laurels.

I was just playing with some rough estimates. If AMGN took a 10 percent stake in MNKD it costs them 30 million. After that they could offer 1 AMGN share for 5 each of the rest of MNKD shares. It would take only about 36,000,000 shares of AMGN to do this raising their total shares to about 636,000,000 and potentially lowering AMGN's current valued stock price to about $212. Even if they didn't take a 10 percent stake it would only cost them 40,00,0000 shares of their potential 2.75 billion registered shelf shares. A drop in the bucket that I think they could sell to their shareholders. It would basically be a buy out at about $42 per share and about an 8 billion dollar deal. That would fit with Al Mann's normal past company return on investment targets. Amgen also gets NOLS, a state of the art manufacturing facility, sales of a growing innovative product and a highly coveted innovative delivery system. Not to mention the TreT deal. I think MNKD will be worth more than that in 5 years, but after 10 years of my fruitless MNKD addiction I would take it.Receiving $42 for something currently trading at $1.47? Anyone not taking it needs to be committed to an institution. IMO. Good luck seeing that sort of offer, though. Has a buyout (say, in the last 50 years) for any company anywhere in the developed world ever been so rich? I cannot think of one.

Isn't it obvious? The code wasn't that hard to decipher. Just break the words in the 5th choice up and rearrange them. "No. Actions have already been in place, as communication is nonexistent." "No. Actions have already been in" "place, as" "communication is nonexistent." " communication is n onexistent" " place as" "No. Actions hav e al ready been in" And Cooper rhymes with Hooper, our new board member and Amgen retiree. Got it. No, I guess I just misrecalled the guy's name (and no one else seemed to notice until now).

I do think many believe in something amazing of mythical proportions that will soon be revealed. Some can hold onto that belief indefinitely, others end up getting disillusioned. Of course it's always been a flawed expectation. I didn't vote as I don't think any of these buckets capture my feelings adequately. I tried to be wide ranging in respect answer choices. What would you answer? Problem I see, is you have no simple yes or no. You muddied it up by attaching qualifiers people may not agree with. I mean, I might want to vote yes but not agree about dilution at the next AM, a 12 month timeframe, or that all promises will be kept and all veins of gold will appear.

Oh for F'k sake. Now we're debating on how the product gets to Biomm? Are you kidding me? Who cares, did they re-order? That's what matters. Geezus folks c'mon! That discussion had ended two days ago. Nice of you to bump it to create new interest, though. Mytakeonit, are you there? Your turn, take it away.

Well, first, it is Co nor and not Connor. Second, if this means Ma nnkind is no longer sponsoring him, is Conor is dead to Ma nnkind investors? Third, Ma nnkind probably cut him off for not adding the extra 'n' to his name. First, it is MannKind and not Mannkind. Second, who watches NASCAR anyways? ”Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series finale from Homestead-Miami averaged a 2.2 rating and 3.74 million viewers on NBC, marking the lowest rating in the 20-year history of the race and the smallest audience since at least 2001” I suppose 3.74 million is still someone, but that pales before internet ads. 🙃 In my defense, 'MannKind' uses both Mannkind and mannkind freely. You can find instances of both on its corporate website, for instance. (And, IMO, F1 trumps NASCAR.)

I think I posted that link a few days ago, but in any case it confirms what the article said (about the one day drop not lasting). It's quite premature (IMO) to say the 'Coronavirus numbers are going down and will be minimal very soon' as was stated earlier in this thread.

What should be done is nothing. Coronavirus numbers are going down and will be minimal very soon. Problem is mostly in China ... and we know what they think of the U.S. But, that's mytakeonit Or not. globalnews.ca/news/6528870/china-virus-outbreak-deaths-infected/"China’s health ministry said another 3,062 cases had been reported over the previous 24 hours, raising the Chinese mainland’s total to 40,171. Monday’s rise was a turnaround from a significant reduction in new cases reported Sunday, less than 2,700, that briefly prompted optimism prevention methods such as a strict quarantines may be working."

I couldn't find any current info on desisto. Very unusual. Who does he work for? DeSisto was already a Chief Financial Officer for a company (ZOLL Medical Corporation) in 1986. I don't know, but I'm assuming CFO is typically not one's first job? He had a long career. DeSisto retired from Insulet in 2014. I'm guessing he stayed retired.

Why is the size or method of shipment relevant? What matters are orders, who cares about the shipment? Method of shipment was brought up because ktim felt that the order would fit on one pallet and MNKD could fly it to Brazil. Thinking back a few weeks, I do believe that Mike C said that the container was on the water and/or had arrived in Brazil. I also remember that the shipment was going to be used in hospitals ... But, that's mytakeonit with possible dementia In the last conference call, MC said they handed the product off to AUM, and (as I read it) that AUM would ship it. He never said ship it on the water (at least, if he did it is not in the last CC transcript). AUM (as you probably know) handles both ocean and air transportation. So, I dunno. CC transcript: Analyst: What I'm trying to get a little more clarity around Brazil with the early market looks like, what the potential ramp might look like and then walk us a little bit how you guys are recognizing revenue as part of the partnership? Michael Castagna: On Brazil they just got the product of customs a couple of weeks ago, so I don't want to comment yet on their launch plans. I know they're finishing up pricing negotiations with the government, I think until all that happens, we're just -- we know there's a lot of excitement down there, but I think we need another month or so to get the feedback on how that flows out but otherwise product down there has gone through customs. It's in the warehouse. Steven Binder: And I'll take the second piece of that. Dylan so we recognized revenue when we ship the product or hand it off to our partner AUM. They take possession of it as it ships out of the United States.

Thank You OD and Joey I'm a type 2. Take no Basil injection. Mostly, I've got a handle on this. My average is around 130 but would like to get closer to the 100 mark. I've had only one read out in the 60s; the one I mentioned / several at 88 with fewer under 100 and more above 135. I'm so happy to have this drug; just don't want to lose it because of the system that is in place. Spirometry on Monday. thanks for the best wishes all. Back at you too. If you have not given up, grow a pair and check this thread out: mnkd.proboards.com/thread/11674/revolutionary-type-2-diabetes-discoveryIt worked for me.
