UPDATE 1-Novo Nordisk to supply insulin at discount to poorest nations


Danish drugmaker Novo Nordisk A/S pledged on Wednesday to provide insulin at steeply discounted prices in the world's least-developed nations in what it is calling its "access to insulin commitment." The company, which produces almost half of the world's insulin, said the guarantee applied to Least Developed Countries as defined by the United Nations, other low-income nations as defined by the World Bank, and selected organizations providing relief in humanitarian situations.
