‘HIV-ending’ drug could be made for just $25 per patient a year, say researchers
‘HIV-ending’ drug could be made for just $25 per patient a year, say researchers
Except in the United States, where it will be $1500 a dose.
But don't worry! If you're fortunate enough to have a job at a good company that pays well, then you can spend $300-$500 of your monthly paycheck to have an insurance company possibly cover up to 80% of the cost! Assuming you are in-network, picked the right plan, followed all the confusing steps to file a claim, and aren't disqualified by one of their dozens of contingencies.
Land of the free babay!
and aren't disqualified by one of their dozens of contingencies
one of which is having HIV
Or it'll be banned because it just facilitates the gay lifestyle.
Only 1500?
And you have to take a dose everyday or some horrible side effect will occur.
i understand that if it costs $25 to make it then it needs to cost a bit more for supply chain, profits etc (regularly a 50% increase from factory and another 50% increase to retail), but i'll bet you a $500 bottle of HIV-ending drugs that this wont cost $56.25.
That $25 estimate included a 30% profit margin already.
$500 a bottle would be practically giving it away in the US. Most life sustaining meds or the rare cure are sold at unfathomable prices. One of my post-transplant anti rejection meds is $60,000 a month
Can we hurry up with this please. I want to cum buckets in my femboy slut. OK, thx, bye.
Obama is welcome to join too
It costs you significantly leas than 25 bucks to not write shit like that
Let people be horny, it's the only thing keeping the corpo shitheads out of this place.
It costs significantly less to have a sense of humour.
Let the debaucherous degenerate have their fun. Not like they're hurting anyone, unlike the profligates known as the Mormons.
I came here to write about fucking monkeys
Just wanted you to know 🙂
Im okay with it.
Thats the spirit !
Infinite breeding here I cum!
At $25-$50/yr with low to no risk of getting HIV I would get the shot. Just like a flu or COVID shot.
naming your company fucking "Gilead" is some torment nexus-ass shit
They are probably referencing the balm.
the company has been around for a long time, before the book was made famous, one of the first things i saw when applying to lab/biotech was gilead position for scientists. this was already 10 years ago.
they even have transportaiton buses from our city to thier campuses, because its quite far away from a city if you work in biotech.
yeah, I did check dates after, my irony circuits were just too fried when I first read it >.>
Yeah, I grimaced at the name and implications.
Gilead
Oh, so it's assured they will bleed people dry then, based on this company's track record.
This is the drug I'm super hyped about. Even if it was $35, it would be life-changing for millions of people.
Shit, let's make it $100 per year so they can make lots of money.
you’re thinking too small
1000$/year baybeee!
or rather, they’ll find the perfect balance of profitability, between how many people can afford it VS how much they’d pay for it
the poors will die but that is a sacrifice they are enthusiastic to make
But it won’t be
Oh, it will be, but they'll mark it up 100,000%
Then it won't be 25 dollars.
It'll cost $25 to produce. Selling cost is another matter entirely.
