on NBR (PBS) tonight -- Eli Lilly is trying hard but it's not easy.indeed
IN OTHER NEWS, dementia rates are dropping. Best contraindicator is EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT
Let's hope Dave goes to the library and picks up a few books written by gerontologists on AD, something John clearly did not do. It's a multifactorial condition - vascular primarily, but those who fall quickly often have less education and don't stay active throughout life with challenges to their intellect (or their bodies).
#1 preventative factor: Lifelong education
#2 good fitness
There is much, much more -- it's all been said before but there is no magic bullet folks
you heard it here first (Sola failure)
Keeping it real....

Where do I collect my prize for my foresight. Mind you, it hardly required much investment in time or effort to figure out that Lilly was trying to sell us all another in a long line of shams.
If the share price keeps dropping, the best you can now hope for is that one of the real big guns in the industry decides that there is still some value in the company that can be unlocked and buys it.
Supermajority vote........bwahhhaaaahaha.
P.S. See ya, Wouldn't like to be ya.
Dr. Amen on PBS just now: Erectile dysfunction is a predictor of Alzheimers "It's ALL ABOUT BLOOD FLOW"
Frequent sauna bathing can reduce the risk of dementia, according to a recent study carried out at the University of Eastern Finland. In a 20-year follow-up, men taking a sauna 4–7 times a week were 66% less likely to be diagnosed with dementia than those taking a sauna once a week. The association between sauna bathing and dementia risk has not been previously investigated.
The effects of sauna bathing on the risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia were studied in the Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease Risk Factor Study (KIHD), involving more than 2,000 middle-aged men living in the eastern part of Finland. Based on their sauna-bathing habits, the study participants were divided into three groups: those taking a sauna once a week, those taking a sauna 2–3 times a week, and those taking a sauna 4–7 times a week. http://www.uef.fi/en/-/runsas-sauno...lta?inheritRedirect=true&redirect=/en/etusivu

Amazing, the company had to pay someone to tell them this!
(this is why getting rid of employees at age 40 is a terrible, terrible idea)

Man you gotta read The Myth of Alzheimers -- top preventative hacks? Active lifestyle, good diet, education, moderate alcohol consumption (oh I'll bet THAT raised eyebrows among the church ladies!), chewing gum, exercise and now we are repeating ourselves.
Like many in LLY MGMT do, it's how we do business.
