As regulator prepares to approve Lenacapavir in the US, campaigners are urging the manufacturer, Gilead, to make it ‘available and affordable for all who need it’
the company has been around for a long time, before the book was made famous, one of the first things i saw when applying to lab/biotech was gilead position for scientists. this was already 10 years ago.
they even have transportaiton buses from our city to thier campuses, because its quite far away from a city if you work in biotech.
It looks like that’s indeed the case, and they’ve been around long enough that Handmaid’s probably wasn’t that well-known at the time. Still, the irony is off the charts… have they considered changing their logo to the traditional four-armed rotationally-symmetric sacred Buddhist symbol? >.>
naming your company fucking “Gilead” is some torment nexus-ass shit

No they’re going with a sonnenrad.
They considered, but there were too many other contenders.
Yeah, I grimaced at the name and implications.
