Pfizer says it will price Covid treatment Paxlovid at nearly $1,400 for a five-day course, which researchers estimate only costs Pfizer $13 to produce.

That's a 10,000%+ markup. Shameful.

NC is a 49/51 state. My district Representative, Jeff Jackson (NC 14) won with 57.7% of the vote. Behind closed doors, the NCGOP just redrew NC-14 to be R+15 by connecting the southeast suburbs of Charlotte to a district that wraps around Charlotte and extends west and north nearly to Tennessee.
The GOP hates and fears representative democracy because they hate and fear the American people. They must know us.

In most other democracies, what the Republican Party is doing in the House right now would trigger a new election -- in which the Republicans would likely get WRECKED for failing to govern.

Deepest condolences.

Jim Jordan will be the death nell for the Republican Party! He is hellbent to take away Social Security & Medicare and he has Trump’s hand up the back of his shirt telling the fucking idiot what to do! He is a clear and present danger to America!!!

那些自称欣赏我的智慧接近我的男人,无外乎都发现我超乎他们想像的有智慧,他们总觉得女人有智慧也逃不出“可爱”的范畴,一旦发现女人和他们一样有智慧或者比他们还有智慧,他们能感到的绝不是尊重,而是恐惧。

articles are like "the economic cost of long covid is too high, we need a cure!!!"

i mean a cure would be rad but we already know how to prevent long covid:

1. vaccination
2. ventilation & filtration
3. masking

society is currently so disinterested in the ramifications of long covid we can't even be bothered to prevent long covid using cheap and effective methods
