Just a reminder that Frederick Banting, discoverer of the process to synthesise insulin, sold the patent for $1 because it was so important to him that it be widely available and easily mass produced. Yes, you should be angry.
This is the open Insulin project. An open source movement to develop a cheap and unrestricted recipe for producing rapid acting (lispro) and long acting (glargine) insulin.
These modern forms of insulin are still patented, and only the more dangerous less effective forms have had their parents expire.
