Yeah.

And so it's not a rare condition.

And something really culturally cool has happened, at least from my perspective.

We've started to see MS enter into the mainstream.

So there was the West Wing TV show where a character on the West Wing, the person who played the president, had MS.

Mm-hmm.

And I can't tell you how many people with MS it helped normalize.

Like I've had people tell me I used to inject each week with the president.

Just seeing MS on TV helps normalize it.

And so I think that it's become a little bit less stigmatized and a little bit more mainstream than it was even when we were kids.

That's exactly right.

You're right.

And the famous people with MS of the last generation didn't have access to care.

Richard Pryor, the Mickey Mouse Club.

These folks went through what we unfortunately call the natural history of multiple sclerosis, like what happens if you don't treat.

And so we're now seeing a generation of people treated and it's a very, very different set of variables.

It's a very different condition in that regard.

Right on.

So I explained to people that in order to understand MS, we have to think about the immune system, right?

So there's all these organ systems in the body, like, you know, the cardiovascular system pumps blood all over the place.
