Free for you, not the insurance. Pharmacies are receiving the medication at no cost. Insurance is generally reimbursing $20 per vaccination for the service.
-The new Pfizer drug was specifically designed to inhibit a key enzyme that the virus uses to replicate.
-Ivermectin was developed to treat malaria, a disease caused by trypanosomes, an organism which is in no way related to a virus. No one has identified any plausible mechanism by which ivermectin might stop a virus.
-The Pfizer drug was approved after placebo controlled clinical trials proved it was effective against Covid.
-No controlled clinical trials have proven ivermectin to be effective against covid.
Health care industry is just as dirty and corrupt as the politicians. The whole industry is a money making scam.
And that’s not to discredit our first responders and front line personnel.
Name one industry that is not a money-making "scam"
For only $999 per pill. Take 5 per day for 7 days and you're as good as gold. Or Pfizer is.
Not sure about the price. Just being cynical here.
"We are prepared to pay eleventy billion dollars per 3,000 pills, because we need to Back Better Build.....errr, Better Build Back.....uhhh.....you know, that thing over there."

If Ivermectrin didn't work, then I guess all of the people that took it and recovered without ending up in the hospital would have done just fine without it. But how can that be? All we ever heard was that if you don't get vaccinated and then get COVID you are going to end up in the hospital and die.
So which is it? Does Ivermectrin actually have some benefit or is COVID not as dangerous as the MSM and government are trying to advertise?
If it isn't as serious as being advertised why do we need a new pill and like the vaccine, untried for long-term effects, when there is other treatments that can be effective?
I'm vaxed and boosted. Second Moderna laid us (wife and I) low for a couple of days.
The booster was more like the first dose, not much discomfort.
These new Covid drugs are scarier than the vaccines.
If I get the Rona, I'd rather have the monoclonal antibody treatment or Ivermectin.
Technically for us out of pocket, it's free. But to insurers and the government, they aren't and long term we wind up paying for them through premiums and taxes.
My point was about the cost of prevention versus the cost of treatment.
Insurance can be charged an administration fee, but around here no one is charging that.
They are but you aren't seeing it. Most insurers are reimbursing an administration to the providers. In a pharmacy, the claim will say no copay for you but in it under dispensing fee will show the administration fee reimbursement. I receive information from all the insurers about claim reimbursement and they are doing something. If there was no administration fee reimbursement, pharmacies would not be apt to provide the service.
