    Look, they don’t make money by curing things. They make money when you have to take lifelong treatments to prevent the disease. The public isn’t directly paying for COVID shots, except they are by paying taxes.

    The pharma companies don’t want people to be educated and taking preventative measures, they need more people to get COVID so that they can inspire others to fear getting it just enough to get the vaccine. Pharma pushes more units and the line goes up.

    There’s no money to be made in completely eliminating the disease, so they won’t do that.
