We can truly be thankful for being Australian.My Mum is a transplant patient. She has to pay $75-$100 a month in medicines, just to keep her alive. Normally they would costs in the hundreds, to possibly over a thousand dollars a month, without the price caps. Not one normal working class family could afford that. She would die otherwise.
Something that has actually happened to many people in the USA, who died as they were priced out of medicine that should be affordable, And actually are not that costly to produce, but have still been priced up to high prices because pharma companies are parasites.
I skip a lot of my medicines now and then, even though each generally only costs $7.50. Because I rather use some of that money for other things, as I am lower class. I wouldn't take any at all if they cost more than that.
All the best to your Mum _Cerberus_
