Families of young children with cystic fibrosis are celebrating a Pharmac proposal to widen access to the drug Trikafta, which is out for consultation.
It's been funded for children over 6 since 2023, but the agency's now proposing extending it to under-sixes.

"I'd already spoken to my boss over in Australia about the potential for us to move over if things got worse."
