Recall that the formula for insulin was given for free to the university of toronto and now most people in the USA cannot afford insulin even though the cost of creation has not changed since the 1950’s.
It was only extremely recently that 35 dollar insulin became available in the USA and that’s still obscenely overpriced.
Can’t wait for it to be specifically priced for only the 1% to be able to afford. Just like all the other cancer drugs that work.
Why be that cynical about it? All technology is only for the rich when it’s first introduced.
