2) Maybe someone bragged on Parler and will get nailed for it...
This crying mother can’t afford the $1000 for her son’s insulin.
📌yet, it only costs pharma $5 to produce.
📌Insulin was invented 100 years ago by Fred Banting—who donated patent for $1 to make it free for all.
Let that sink in.
2) Insulin is one of the most disgusting cases of price gouging ever.
America has long taken a free market approach to pharmaceuticals.
Drug companies haggle separately over drug prices with a variety of private insurers across the country...
3) “Meanwhile, Medicare, the government health program for those over age 65 — it’s also the nation’s largest buyer of drugs—is barred from negotiating drug prices. That gives pharma more leverage, and it leads to the kind of price surges of EpiPens, opioid antidotes, & insulin.”
📍On Feb 14 2020 on CNN interview in Lafayette Park— I said US cases 10x higher.
➡️I got hate messages for being a “fear monger” alarmist. Some even spread misinfo I wasn’t an epidemiologist (Harvard, Dept of Epidemiology, Doctor of Science 2007, 🤷🏻♂️)
We broke 4000 deaths again today. 2nd time ever. We are headed to 5000 deaths/day before end of Feb.
➡️We need to vaccinate at **least 1 mil/day**. But if the B117 variant takes hold & becomes dominant in US, we will need to have *2 mil/day vaccinated*. Honest reality. #COVID19
2) This is why I’m so worried. The B117 went from 9% to now 45% of sequenced #SARSCoV2 in Ireland 🇮🇪 within 3 weeks. England 🏴 is also completely overwhelmed. We know it is here in US and spreading.
3) the more infectious B117 variant will literally take over if given the chance. Denmark 🇩🇰 CDC is extremely pessimistic that they tested 11k samples in just 1 month for B117, and now think it’s takeover be unstoppable by Feb/March.
2) Wastewater is very predictive. It was also used to identify the #SARSCoV2 was in Italy by December 2019. People didn’t know if true but later proven true by November case of COVID.
Sobering—CNN reporter @sarasidnerCNN crying on air after seeing devastation at California 10 hospitals full of #COVID19 patients and witnessing countless parking lot funerals. This reporter has been to war zones & covered bombings. But COVID is next level.
