Dying to Survive adapted from the true story of a patient with chronic myeloid leukemia named Lu Yong.
Chen Yong lives in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province. He used to be the owner of a knitting foreign trade factory. In 22, he was diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia from a well-off family. All this changed for him. ?
For him, whose life span is only three years, he can only have a bone marrow transplant, but the match is hard to find. Lu Yong can only take medicine to stabilize his condition first. There is a kind of Gleevec produced by a Swiss pharmaceutical company, which has a particularly good effect, but it is just too expensive. ?
I have to eat one box a month, and the price of this box is 23,5 yuan. It will cost hundreds of thousands a year, which is already sky-high for leukemia groups. ?
Lu Yong also took this medicine. During this period, he took nearly 7, yuan, which was too much for his family. ?
Lu Yong found a box of Indian-made generic drugs for foreign leukemia patients on the Internet for only 3, yuan. He asked someone to buy it home for a few months and then went to the hospital for examination. All the indicators were normal. He introduced this medicine to his patients and bought it for them for free.
The fact that Lu Yong bought medicine for patients was discovered by the police, and the police knew that Lu Yong was a kind person. But this kind of behavior is breaking the law, and they are also very helpless. ?
What is serious is that this drug in India has no patent in China and belongs to counterfeit drugs. So Lu Yong was prosecuted by the procuratorate for selling counterfeit drugs, which will face jail time. ?
When leukemia patients didn't hear the news, they were very sad. In the eyes of patients, Lu Yong is a very honest and helpful person. If it weren't for buying medicines for everyone, he wouldn't be arrested. And if anything happens to Lu Yong, their life-saving medicine will be gone. ?
These hundreds of patients signed a letter and sent it to the judicial organ, asking the procuratorate to cancel the public prosecution and acquit Lu Yong. Finally, after the court considered the situation in many ways, Lu Yong was finally acquitted.
