Moderna considering a 400 percent price increase for the vaccine

Isn't 400% also the increased risk of heart attack after taking their vax?

 

I had my physical today and my doctor wasn't adamant about a booster. It was so different from 21 and 22.

 

I wish I hadn't gotten Moderna at all. Biontech/Pfizer is better. Had no choice at the time.

 

100 bucks per jab that Uncle Sam mostly subsidises.

If Americans had to pay for the true cost of these vaccines, the initial response would've been protests towards getting them to as many people possible. A total shift against whatever is going on right now in social media.

 

Sure you did, you could of been an antivaxxer and not taken any vaccine.

 

At the time, it would have been impossible to travel or even have any social life without the "booster" in Germany. People forget how dystopian it was.

 

China lucked out.

 

Same with Pfizer covid vaccine. The US gov got a deal, but they are no longer buying them. Something about free market on commercial products.

 

You poor thing.

 

Tell us of the dark days of the plague gulag, papa

 

I've had four shots of Moderna including the latest bivalent Omnicron vaccine and experienced very little problems. After my second shot did feel some chills and fatigue for a few days but didn't get that with the other boosters.

Based on efficacy Moderna appears to be the cold standard of vaccines and would be fine taking another booster a year from now.

I'm not surprised though they want to make more money off of the vaccine. Here I think government(s) can make an argument back that so much public investment was put into it's development and deployment that Moderna can't claim it's their creation so they deserve to profit as much as they want.

 

This is why all Americans should have free healthcare. Pharmaceutical companies' price gouging is ridiculous. They will continue to squeeze every dollar they can get off their medicines.

 

Where's the taqueria shooter when you need him?

 

I never got the first one and never will. I have no issues with any other vaccines.

 

I'm still trying to wrap my head around repugs being against capping price on insulin.

 

Ya the other ones weren't politicized.

It's amazing how this all started from Trump fearing a recession right before election season due to a pandemic and dismissing the problem and every talking point from conservatives since then is just backtracking defending that initial point.

It's amazing.

 

It has nothing to do with politics. I am well aware it was Trump who pushed them to begin with. I have not trusted them from the beginning. They were rushed. They have proven to not stop Covid and the goal post keeps moving for how "effective" they are. There are many potential side effects some of which are really bad. Add to that Covid has never scared me to begin with.

 

Bless his heart

 

The initial starting point was Trump dismissing Covid because he understood how a possible economic lockdown would effect his reelection bud. Everything starts from that starting point to the modern right wing anti-vax movement.

Trump supported the vaccine until he realized it won't be approved under his administration.
