@JoeW he would definitely cash in all the moment he can.
For proper context: HIV drug could be made for just $40 a year for every patient
> A new drug described as “the closest we have ever been to an HIV vaccine” could cost $40 (£31) a year for every patient, a thousand times less than its current price, new research suggests.

Lenacapavir , sold as Sunlenca by US pharmaceutical giant Gilead, currently costs $42,250 for the first year. The company is being urged to make it available at a thousand times less than that price worldwide.
> Lenacapavir is currently licensed for treatment, not prevention.
> Campaigners want Gilead to allow generic licensing through the UN-backed Medicines Patent Pool in all low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), which account for 95% of HIV infections. Similar mechanisms have been in place in the HIV treatment market for decades, where wealthy countries pay higher prices than poorer ones.
> Activists at AIDS2024 Demand: Break Gilead’s Lenacapavir Monopoly Gilead’s Price 100,000% Higher than Target Generic Price for 100% Effective Prevention Shot

npr: Arkansas’ gov says Medicaid extension for new moms isn’t needed. Advisers disagree
> Arkansas is the only state that has not taken the step to expand what’s called postpartum Medicaid coverage, an option for states paid for almost entirely by the federal government that ensures poor women have uninterrupted health insurance for a year after they give birth.
> Arkansas has one of the highest rates of maternal mortality in the nation, a grim tally of women who die from any cause related to pregnancy or childbirth, including weeks after delivery. In Arkansas, 20% to 29% of women are uninsured at some point over the period before they conceive to after they give birth.
> “I don’t believe creating a duplicative program just for the sake of creating a program is actually going to fix the issue,” she said. “We already have so many women who aren’t taking advantage of the coverage that exists. Creating more coverage doesn’t get more women to the doctor.”
