Alnylam on life support

Our stock is down, sales are non existent, sales force sitting on its ass at home. Company burning through cash!! Not much time left. President said the wash out for corona virus will be July or August. Don’t think our company can sustain this for that long. Not good!!!

 

you are not terribly bright

 

The company has survived for 15 years with no revenue. Patients are continuing to infuse and we are still getting new patients. We will survive. Get a grip.

 

You are RIGHT, net income is way over-rated, it only creates tax problems.

 

No worries - our excellent research folks will fill the void. Sales are over rated - as research has clearly stated on this site.

 

Patients won't get infused if the hospital they go to tells them to stay home because they are high risk. Lets be real, they can skip some infusions and be ok. TTR levels will go back up BUT they may rather deal with that than walk into an overrun Hospital with COVID running around. Risk may not outweigh the benefit. Meanwhile, we are losing revenue until normalcy comes back which might not be til summer if not longer depending where in the country you are at. Most of our biz is in brick and mortar sites with a lot of fragile cancer patients too.
And god forbid they lose insurance coverage during this economic storm that is brewing. This is Great Depression level stuff.

You just don't get it. We have a fragile economic/healthcare system in America and this is exposing it. No one is fine from this but Charmin toilet paper for some damn reason.

 

No hospitals are telling patients not to infuse. Legit not one. Not even Utah after the earth quake

 

sorry but you are wrong... They are not infusing for the time being. those that can go home infusion will .. those that can't .. we'll its drug holiday. that's the fact. it may depend where you are in the country and the severity of the local situation. just wait til the number of cases increases locally for you. you'll see.

 

I’m actually not wrong. You are very incorrect. I’m a patient facing employee, I speak with patients every single day not one of my patients or any of my colleagues patients throughout the entire US has had any centers stop infusing patients. The only disruption has been that of patient choice, and that is extremely rare.

 

Well talking to HCPs ... they are talking about it. I’ll tell you that. A lot of hard decisions are having to be made as supplies get tight and staff stretched. They haven’t communicated it with patients yet. But the hospitals are trying to find a way so that patients who are at risk like amyloidosis don’t come to the hospital. patients aren’t as bad as cancer patients so cancer patients take precedent. Remember it’s a 3 week cycle so it will trickle in and this situation is evolving daily. I’m so pleased to hear it’s not happening in mass. That’s a good sign but as areas start to approach their peak .. those hard decisions may be made. I’d encourage patient facing folks to increase their contact with patients to stay ahead of things. id encourage you to especially find out what’s going on in hotspots. That will tell you what’s coming to the rest.
remember patients pause therapy for all sorts of reasons and they restart. This is one hell of a reason to pause. Lay low and ride it out. I hope I’m way off base on this.

 

You are. I don’t have patients in ma but I can tell you it’s not happening anywhere. It’s not happening in Washington, and I know other colleagues with patients in other epicenters are not seeing it either. Stop pretending you’re a know it all. You’re a joke who just wants to spew negativity.

 

hey.. hope you're right on this. safe to say we are in charted territory. Sometimes the person that is being accused of being "negative is just the person that's hoping for the best and preparing for the worst"
Let's hope we get through this as a world. This is bigger than one lil RNAi company with amazing science.. this is the world's economic and healthcare systems being put to the test. State budgets will be strained.. companies may fold.. insurance tied to ones job may disappear for many.. we could all use a nice mix of optimism .. pragmatism .. prayer if you believe.. and some damn flat out luck right about now.
may the force be with all of us!

 

Company is going to furlough us starting in May if we are not given green light to go back to work.

 

Obviously, you don't work here. The stock closed at $130k on Friday. Last week, on the Town Hall, the company advised the Field that they would not be in the field until Q3. GO AWAY TROLL.

 

^ above poster is only half right. Closed at $145 today. Dollar billz y’all.
