She is the 3rd person to have ever contracted Factor 8 Inhibitor. She is receiving a new drug to help her with bleeding. Before Myranda got sick, no one has been able to have access to this new drug. But now because of Myranda everyone that has trouble with bleeding can now use this new drug. We would like to first talk to T.J. Ghist the head of communications of EOU to write a press release.
