Two things about the Ozempic roll out on TrumpRx: 1) this is a cash price (based on GoodRx who manages it) so cost is not covered by insurance or applied to deductible and 2) price goes up after 2 fills to $349/499 per month depending on dosage. So a bait and switch on a lot of levels.
Screenshot of TrumpRx page with Ozempic pricing. Small print show how pricing goes up after 2 fills from $199 to $349/499 depending on dosage. Also this is a cash price only.

Picture of two people hugging. Text reads:

I know you are anxious. I know you are wondering where all of this will go. I know you feel you are on a ride you cannot stop. Many of us feel that way. It is the natural reaction to chaos and chaos is the unexpected happening over and over. While we may not be able to stop it, we can keep our own equilibrium. We do that by focusing on one another: hold on to me, as I hold on to you, as together we hold on to Spirit.—Steven Charleston

Comment from NYT article about Elon Musk and his team’s actions:
Text of NYT comment: As someone who grew up under an authoritarian regime, I can offer one crucial piece of advice: time is everything. If you don't stand up now—if you don't protest, resist, disrupt, and refuse to comply-you may lose your country forever.
Authoritarianism thrives on silence, hesitation, and fear. The longer people wait, the more entrenched the regime becomes, making resistance exponentially harder. Every moment of inaction is a moment the regime uses to tighten its grip. History has shown that those who act early have the best chance of reclaiming their freedom. The time to fight back is now.
