There's no news of #Modi's visit to the #US when you turn on #CNN on TV in India.

So I looked up #NBC online.

I had to scroll past 11 screens to find any news of Modi's visit.

#XiJinping, on the other hand, was on the first screen.

These are the first six screens.

1/n Neues Jahr, neue Vorsätze. Viele möchten -mal wieder- mehr Sport machen, zudem #Diät und #Abnehmen. Doch das erfordert Disziplin und ist mühsam. Wie wäre es stattdessen mit einer Spritze 1x/Woche? #ElonMusk macht es vor. Die Entwicklung ist bedenklich. Ein Thread 🧵👇🏻 Image

Obesity Market Overview

A deep dive into the unmet need, competitive landscape and future of treatment:
Obesity primer:

• Defined as BMI >30kg/m^2
• >750M patients globally, including ~40% of US adults --> expected to increase to 1B people / ~50% of US adults by 2030
• Linked to 1/5 US adult deaths

However, just ~2% of people (15M) are on anti-obesity medications (AOM)

For years, bariatric surgery was the primary interventional treatment (25-30% weight loss) as opposed to 1st gen drugs (5-8% weight loss)

Emerging therapies have closed this efficacy gap
