Good Trouble With Guest Anna Bower
Anna Bower: "I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope. She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive. But the FDA recently denied its approval. Now, her health hangs in the balance. Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵" — Bluesky, @annabower - Bluesky, LawfareMedia .org
