Gov. Gavin Newsom said Thursday that California will begin selling affordable insulin under its own label on Jan. 1, nearly three years after he first announced a partnership to sell state-branded generic drugs at lower prices.
But California won’t be the only state making lower-cost insulin available. The nonprofit Civica said it will also distribute its economical diabetes medication to pharmacies nationwide. California began partnering with Civica in 2023 for its “CalRx” brand of insulin and put $50 million toward its development, the company said.
Starting in the new year, insulin pens will be available at a recommended price of $11 per pen, or a maximum of $55 for a five-pack, Civica said.
Stop this with personal blaming fallacy. The burden of presenting an electable candidate is on the DNC.
They are the ones with the money, time, and resources to do so not the poor overworked exhausted citizens who are lucky to get time off to vote every 4 years.
Oh yeah, sure - I hate the DNC and everything they stand for, I deem their candidates to be transphobic child murdering Zionists but I’m busy with my job so they double suck the end.
Your commitment to excellent governance is nonexistent. Is it any wonder you’re always dissatisfied with no solutions? This is exactly what I expect from “the left” around here. Nothing but self-important screeching and a refusal to stop republiQans. A refusal to stop fascism. As if that was the entire goal.
