Eli Lily caps insulin at $35 a month! This is pretty amazing. Kudos to Bernie and everyone else who worked so hard to make it happen. Thinking today of those who already died because they couldn't get enough insulin. There are 68,000 people who die each year from lack of healthcare in the US. 18 million people cannot afford to fill the prescriptions ordered by their doctors. Insulin capped at $35 is huge and important, but it's just the beginning. The goal is universal healthcare in America, just as there is in every other advanced democracy.
