It disappeared for a while, now airing again with a vengeance.
Guess Opdivo wasn't working great alone so they merged with this Yervoy?  

1 min 30 sec ad with exactly 40 seconds rambling on about it's bad side effects. Confused



Out of pocket $$ -  A combination of Yervoy and Opdivo, approved by the Food and Drug Administration for advanced or inoperable melanoma, has a cost of $256,000 a year for patients who respond to the treatment.

I like how they mention a chance to live longer and things associated with prolonging your life but then mention side effects that lead to death. Isn't that ironic?

Instead of just prolonging your life, how about finding an actual cure? Or is that not as profitable.

I always laugh when I see that. How do you know if you're allergic to the drug if you haven't taken it yet.

Yoodieverypo has been trademarked by Astra Zeneca, this will be the official name for the Covid vaccine.

Ask your doctor about Yoodi!


* Of course, do not take if you are allergic to Yoodieverypo *

I seen the AD is back now 

playing during good morning merica today 

seems like the only side effect is death so what's the problem 

if you have lung cancer you are probably gonna die anyhow 

i love how they push the side effects list to some stupid publication like readers digest 

or the AARP newsletter

What image editing program(s)/app(s) do you use?

Looks like maybe a combination of Photoshop, an online meme generator and maybe something else.

Drug companies in general should not be allowed to advertise on TV. "Tell your doctor to prescribe..." Yeah. My doctor would just ask me where I  went to medical school.

Just used Photoshop on this one.
Few fonts. Few stock images, slapped a Bane face mask on the old woman. 😂

I think they got the name from a clever reboot of YURI ANDROPOV 

some of you old timers may remember him 


Yuriy Vladimirovich Andropov, IPA: [ˈjʉrʲɪj vlɐˈdʲimʲɪrəvʲɪtɕ ɐnˈdropəf]; 15 June [O.S. 2 June] 1914 – 9 February 1984) was the sixth paramount leader of the Soviet Union and the fourth General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

I generally hate all pharmaceutical commercials, but the opdivo just pisses me off more than usual. It seems quite insincere and it's clearly obvious that the manufacturer just wants to continuously profit off of cancer patients.

The way they casually mention the tons of side effects indicates to me they don't give a damn about the patients or their quality of life.

To top it all off they issue an empty "thank you" to all the people that participated in the clinical trials. It's obvious people have died and their thank you really means. "We really don't care that you all died, but thanks for making us even more money"

Hey, better life through big pharma. It could be worse, it could be those Bicktardi M4M pharmamercials. Not that there's anything wrong with that if its you and your BF's bag. And from the way back machine those boner pill adds with the old farts in those 1950s era and earlier claw footed bathtubs you find in slums and horror flicks.
