Might try getting it removed from Medicare Medicaid. It was the only protocol they would pay for. Funny that… everyone over 65 or poor are the recipients of these two agencies.
Although you have a valid point, the cost to the patient for any of the repurposed drugs is minimal. Therefore, if informed consent actually happened, how many hundreds of thousands might still be alive today? It isn't truly about Medicare/Medicaid paying for it, it's about the 20% bonus, based on the final hospital bill, that the hospital gets when it's administered. What is also unbelievable is the overall lack of critical thinking skills that many doctors have, when their patients are dying at an average of 80% of the overall Covid patient count per ICU yet they REFUSE to try any other product or medication. They get ANGRY if a patient refuses remdesivir. Only money buys that kind of loyalty.
