Bangers to Bluff to highlight inequity in MS drug funding

From Afternoons, 1:55 pm on 16 April 2021

The annual Bangers to Bluff rally comes to a close tomorrow when the cars finally reach the deep South after having left from Auckland on April 6th.

This year they are funding raising for Multiple Sclerosis New Zealand and highlighting an inequity by Pharmac about which sufferers are eligible for a certain drug which can delay mobility regression.

Neil Woodhams is the president MSNZ and he talks to Jesse about their push to get Pharmac to change their policy.
