Wonderful news for Canada, Italy & now France. Kaftrio/Trikafta has been transformational for pwcf but we mustn’t forget the inequities it’s highlighted. Hoping to see a way forward for countries who can’t access even standard care. @ChildHealthInt1 @mecfassoc #CFCantWait

This is wonderful news. Kaftrio/Trikafta has been transformational for people but we mustn’t forget the inequalities it’s highlighted. Inequalities between countries (some of whom can’t access even standard care) and in eligibility for these types of treatments. #CFCantWait
