It was a watershed! But, dozens of new tests & billions of cartridges later, @DanaherCorp has lowered the price of one test by only 20%! The volumes are massive so cost has come way down. Price should too. Lives are at stake. #TimeFor5

@DanaherCorp 68,000 people are calling for you to do the right thing here. Every day you wait is a day that innocent people suffer and die because they can't afford your tests. #Timefor5

True! And your price drop of the test in Sep 2023 was also a watershed moment. And you know how you can be even more impactful @CepheidNews? Reduce the prices of your tests for XDR-TB, HIV, Hep and all other diseases in your HBDC program as well. We know you can do it. #TimeFor5

So fast, easy, and important. It took me about 3 minutes to register and leave messages for both my senators. If you follow the script, it will take even less time! 😂

I don't like price gouging. It's irritating and it ruins everything, @DanaherCorp

$5.8 billion in profits this quarter, but somehow you can't afford to make your tests inexpensive enough for low income countries to attain them? You're embracing the dark side @DanaherCorp, come back towards the light. Help people survive, make it #TimeFor5

Luke was right about Vader in the end, and we know we'll be right about you, too, @DanaherCorp. You'll put #PeopleOverProfits and realize that it's #TimeFor5 for all tests.

Happy May the Fourth, @DanaherCorp & @CepheidNews!! Like every other minor holiday, Nerdfighters recommend that you celebrate by lowering prices of all of your amazing GeneXpert tests! It's #TimeFor5! People can't afford to wait a long, long time for you to lower these prices.

Tests are an integral part of identifying a disease. GeneXpert test from @DanaherCorp and @CepheidNews have been revolutionary in playing that role for TB, HIV (especially for babies). hepatitis etc. But access remains a barrier due to high prices. Drop the price to $5 !
#Myanmar is one of 30 countries globally with a high burden not only of TB but also drug-sensitive TB, drug-resistant TB & HIV-associated TB. To treat these patients, we need to diagnose first. Danaher must reduce prices of ALL GeneXpert tests! https://t.co/cDrAjasxur

Take a stand by telling your Senator today to support an increase in federal funding to combat tuberculosis globally 📢 Your advocacy matters - it's what drives positive change. Together, we can make history & pave the way for a TB-free future. Act now: https://t.co/Mt26MjYFED

Thank you to Ghana. It's long past time for @DanaherCorp to lower the prices they charge the world's poorest people, and it's awesome to see national governments starting to stand up and reject the status quo.
Good news! #Ghana's national #HIV & #STI control programme sent this letter to @DanaherCorp & @CepheidNews, calling on them to lower the price of lifesaving HIV & #hepatitis tests, so many more people can get diagnosed & treated right away. #TimeFor5

With 5.8 billion revenue and 1.1 billion net earnings in just 3 months in 2024, @DanaherCorp continues to impose a high financial and social cost on LMICs. Price reduction with #TimeFor5 is not only necessary but overdue as Danaher's moral debt to countries. #PeopleOverProfits
Today @DanaherCorp reported $5.8 billion in revenues this quarter w/ gains in market share in its medical test biz @CepheidNews. Their tests are expensive in low- & middle-income countries, where disease burdens are high. Does this sit right with you?👇 https://t.co/9BdcTRQYZH

Revenues from @DanaherCorp diagnostics business rose 7 % to $2.53 billion in Q1. And @CepheidNews revenues increased in the DOUBLE-DIGIT % range. You can't say there is no room to reduce prices of Cepheid's lifesaving tests for LMICs. #TimeFor5

The company reported a 3 percent year-over-year decrease in its total first quarter revenues.
