What's frustrating to me to observe is there are now states like California and the California DPH that are saying, we're gonna set our own vaccine schedule.
We're not gonna listen to the FDA, to the HHS anymore because they don't know what they're doing because they're Trump admin, they're not doctors, they're not scientists.
Clearly this is all political.
And is there a process of engagement that you and your organization go through to try and bring some of these other folks along with you?
Because I think the point you just made
can't be a point that they can fundamentally disagree with.
What is the process by which we can break the political rancor around things like vaccines and just take a very clear cut scientific approach and get people aligned around this?
Do you do engagement on this stuff?
Do you find that there's a path forward?
So it's not good for science.
Most great scientists start out as heretics, just to be clear, by the way.
Yes, that's right.
So Marty, one of the other big challenges that we talk a lot about in this country is the cost of drugs.
Healthcare today costs roughly 15% of our GDP.
That's an insane statistic, and it is rising year after year in the United States, and it's such a complex issue.
By some measurements, though,
The price of drugs in the United States is almost three times what it is outside the United States.
So I'd love to hear a little bit about the specific role of pricing drugs.
What sort of actions have you guys taken and can you take to help bring down the price of drugs for patients, for care providers, for insurance companies, and ultimately for the economy?
Like I got pink eye from my kids.
