British Columbia Health Minister Josie Osborne is “sincerely apologizing” to the family of a 10-year-old girl on Vancouver Island with a rare disease after a public fight over the province’s decision to cut off paying for her medication.
Osborne issued the apology at a news conference after her government announced it would restore the drug funding for Charleigh Pollock, the only person in B.C. with Batten Disease.
