Confidence votes 7.4K. Junior Olympic PoolsThe City of Irvine, CA qualifies that a Jr. Olympic pool is (in English dimensions) 75' long (min.), 5' deep, with 7' wide lanes, and an extra 1.5' at the end lanes. I'm still looking for more information to back this up. A Junior Olympic Pool is 25 meters long.
The most expensive drug in the U.S. is Soliris, from Alexion (ALXN). It costs $409,500 a year, and treats a rare disorder in which the immune system destroys red blood cells at night. Many of the most expensive drugs -- such as Soliris -- treat rare diseases that only a few hundred people suffer from. Those drugs aren't the real problem. Rather, it's the drugs in the $20,000 to $100,000 range, which mainly treat cancer and multiple sclerosis. Those diseases are very common in the elderly population.
I am a little skeptical because of the side effects. I have severe rheumatoid arthritis and have tried several different drugs looking for relief. Methotrexate, Humira, Embrel and prednisone seem to be the most popular on the market. Humira and Embrel are both very expensive and my Part D does not cover them. Methotrexate has caused me severe body rash.
