UTamra Canty-Currie wayejwayele ukudonsa kanzima, agibele izitebhisi futhi adlale nendodana yakhe encane ngemva kweminyaka iphila nokukhuluphala.
Wazama uhla olude lwezindlela zokuthuthukisa impilo yakhe lapho udokotela wakhe emnika incwadi kadokotela eyayishintsha impilo ye-Ozempic, umuthi we-semaglutide wesifo sikashukela osetshenziswe ngaphandle kwelebula njengesidakamizwa sokwehlisa isisindo.
“Ekuqaleni, ngangesaba ngempela futhi ngangingafuni ukuqhubeka ngoba bekunamahlazo amaningi – kwabezindaba, emasikweni adumile,” kusho uCanty-Currie engxoxweni yakamuva. Ngakho ngangingafuni ukukwenza. Ngangesaba.
“Kodwa ekugcineni wangitshela ukuthi akukhona nje ukuthi uzokwehla emzimbeni, kodwa futhi uzokwehlisa amathuba okuba nezifo ezihlobene nokukhuluphala ngokweqile.”
Umama wase-Île-Perrot, Que., uselahlekelwe ngamakhilogremu angu-22 emasontweni angu-30. Umuthi wenze imisebenzi yansuku zonke yaba lula, njengokukwazi ukuhlala phansi ezikhundleni ezake zaba nzima ngesikhathi sokudlala nendodana yakhe.
UCanty-Currie ujabulile ngemiphumela, kodwa hhayi ngenani eliphakeme kakhulu: I-Ozempic ibiza cishe u-$500 ngenyanga – futhi yonke iphuma ephaketheni.
Ibhodi lomshwalense wezempilo wase-Quebec, elaziwa ngokuthi i-RAMQ, okwamanje aliyifaki i-Ozempic kanye nemithi efanayo yokwehlisa isisindo ngaphandle uma inikezwe iziguli ezitholwe zinesifo sikashukela. Isifundazwe naso sisengenye yezindawo ezimbalwa ezingaqapheli ukukhuluphala ngokweqile njengesifo esingalapheki.
U-Tamra Canty-Currie wehle ngophawundi abangu-22 emasontweni angu-30 ngemuva kokunikezwa i-Ozempic.
Izindaba Zomhlaba
UCanty-Currie akanaso isifo sikashukela ngakho kufanele akhokhe amakhulukhulu amaRandi nyanga zonke ukuze athole incwadi kadokotela.
Thola izindaba zezempilo zamasonto onke
Thola izindaba zakamuva zezokwelapha nolwazi lwezempilo olulethwa kuwe njalo ngeSonto.
“Imishanguzo yalezo zifo oyithola ngokukhuluphala iyakhava. Pho kungani singabeki imali eyengeziwe ekuvimbeleni?” Kusho uCanty-Currie.
Uchwepheshe wezokwelapha zangaphakathi waseQuebec uDkt. Yves Robitaille ubheka ukukhuluphala njengesifo esingelapheki. Uthi abantu abaphethwe yiyo kumele bathole imishanguzo elinganayo.
“Ukwelapha ukukhuluphala akusho ukwehlisa isibalo,” kusho uRobitaille. “Kumayelana nokunciphisa ubungozi bazo zonke izifo kanye nezinkinga ezihlobene nesimo sokukhuluphala ngokweqile.”
Isikhungo sikazwelonke saseQuebec sokwenza kahle kwezempilo nezinsizakalo zezenhlalakahle sikhiphe umbiko ngenyanga edlule encoma ukuthi isifundazwe senze iphrojekthi yokuhlola yeminyaka emibili ukuze sibone ukuthi i-RAMQ kufanele yini ihlangabezane nezindleko zomuthi wokunciphisa umzimba wokukhuluphala.
Uhulumeni wesifundazwe uthe uyawuhlaziya lo mbiko.
Izingcingo ziyakhula ukuze iQuebec ibone ukukhuluphala
Kuphinde kwethulwa isicelo esiku-inthanethi kuleli sonto ukuphoqa uhulumeni waseQuebec ukuthi abone ukukhuluphala njengesifo esingalapheki futhi athuthukise ukutholakala kwezidakamizwa zokwehlisa isisindo. Iphinde iphawule ukuthi ngaphezudlwana kwamaphesenti angama-28 abantu baseQuebec bathathwa njengabakhuluphele.
Kusukela ngoLwesine, isicelo besisayiniwe abangu-172. Abasekeli baphikisana ngokuthi uhulumeni udinga ukwenza okwengeziwe ukulwa nokukhuluphala kanye nokulawula ukukhuphuka kwezindleko zezempilo eziza nakho. Iqembu eliphikisayo elisemthethweni iQuebec Liberals liphakathi kwalabo abeseka lesi sicelo.
UCynthia Falardeau, okhulumela i-Obesity Matters, uyingxenye yaleyo mizamo. Uchaze ukuthi imithi ibe neqhaza kanjani ekwelashweni kwakhe.
Ukwenza lezo zidakamizwa zifinyeleleke kalula “kungase kusindise izimpilo” futhi kunikeze abanye abantu baseQuebec abanokukhuluphala abalwa nokuncipha kwesisindo “ikhwalithi yokuphila engcono,” esho.
“Ngifuna ukuba lapha namhlanje ukuze … ngivumele abanye bathole ithuba lokuzwa lokho engabhekana nakho, ukuthola imithi, ukufinyelela kulokhu kuncipha ukuze ngigweme ukuba nezifo ezihambisana nokukhuluphala,” etshela izintatheli ngesikhathi. ingqungquthela yezindaba ngoLwesithathu.
Lezi zingcingo zilandela inhlolovo yakamuva ka-Leger eyenziwe yi-Novo Nordisk, inkampani eyenza i-Ozempic. Inhlolovo yenza inhlolovo kwabaphenduli abangu-1,068 mayelana nokukhuluphala nezidakamizwa zokwehlisa isisindo.
UNovo Nordisk uthi amaphesenti angama-80 alabo abahlolwa akholelwa ukuthi uhulumeni waseQuebec kanye nohlelo lwezempilo lomphakathi kufanele benze okwengeziwe ukusiza labo abaphila nokukhuluphala ngokweqile.
Kepha abanye bakhathazeka ngokucindezela kweQuebec ukuthi ibone ukukhuluphala njengesifo kungaba nemiphumela emibi.
UMickaël Bergeron, umbhali we Impilo ngokuyisisekelo: ukubuka umphakathi nesisindo, utshele iphephandaba iCanadian Press ukuthi ukucabanga ukuthi umuntu okhuluphele ngokweqile uyagula kuyisithiyo esikhulu somphakathi.
“Baningi abantu abakhuluphele abanempilo enhle futhi abangenazo izinkinga ezithile. Uma sikubiza njengesifo esingalapheki, kungabhebhethekisa lolu bandlululo.”
