Just a NICE picture I took.
But on a more serious note - how can NICE (National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence) refuse drugs that have been proven to decrease Alzheimer's when given early, to NHS patients. It only works when given at the early stages! Apart from the humanitarian aspect - what a short term view. The cost of the drugs is far less than the cost of looking after people with Alzheimers. I do wonder who sits on the NICE decision board!
