US Politics on Yik Yak | California will be the first and only state to start contracting the manufacturing of insulin! It’ll cost $11 per pen, or $55 for a 5-pack regardless of insurance. Currently, prices from other brands range $89-150+ for a 5-pack, varying with insurance.

Also worth mentioning though that it costs about 55¢ to produce a month supply of insulin :/

Oh and as of August, there were successful trials of implanting insulin-producing cells that were invisible to the immune system! These cells survived for 6 weeks (and wasn’t longer only because the dose was too low), and long-term survival will be studied :)
