Not to make too much of a joke out of this news, but it sure put a nail in the coffin of this over-rated solution to injecting insulin.

Thankfully, other advances in insulin administration have made it almost painless and far more reliable than ever before. It is still a nuisance, but when you consider the alternative.....thank goodness we have it.
