11.08.09 | 08:45 AM Asked by Karen Schubeck

A. Type II Diabetes in obese patients is
wrecking our health care system.
Overall, more than $1 in every $10 spent
on health care in the United States goes
toward treating Diabetes. Blood glucose
test strips alone can cost about a
dollar each and if you're testing
several times a day every day, the costs
can add up pretty quickly. XOMA has the
first drug "XOMA 052" in the last 10yrs
which will significantly impact this
industry and you would no longer require
daily insulin injections or insulin at
all, for that matter. This would save
the government billions, search on that
one and you'll make a fortune. The
government cannot continue to pay these
kinds of rising diabetes costs, when
there is an alternative which is so safe
and so effective which just became
patented in Europe.
