“Pricing for Paxlovid is based on the value it provides to patients, providers and health care systems," the drugmaker said.

Nearly $100 per pill

Edit: nearly $50 per pill, thought a course was 15 pills instead of 30. Still outrageous.

    My life saving benlysta is something like $3k/mo before insurance, $1k/mo after, but luckily I get it basically free… For now.

    Drug pricing is crazy. They want to recoup their r&d, but almost nobody even pays the full cost. Why not just charge something reasonable…
