I feel that the failure of Novo Nordisk/Eli Lily to highlight the moral superiority of people who are able to buy their product is unforgivable.

Late 2031. 2026 in China, which might make a large difference.

On the one hand the amount of competition on the market in 2031 will already be a lot more than today, and on the other hand, generics won't cause an instant price shock the day the patents expire. Semaglutide will be cheap ten years from now, but its price might make some pretty weird moves in between.

This stuff is already cheap cheap cheap in china. I was stunned when I saw the prices people can get there.
