What was said

"I created the one of the first CAR T cell companies in India where we sell the therapy for 1/20th the price that it's uh that's available in the United States. We've treated almost 150 odd patients. Uh maybe coming up to 200 soon."

Siddhartha Mukherjee says he helped create one of the first CAR-T cell companies in India and claims it offers therapy at about one-twentieth of US prices. He says the programme has treated around 150 patients so far, with numbers approaching 200.
