❌ Eli Lilly lowers the cost of insulin in U.S.
✅ Eli Lilly reluctantly complies with Democratic law that caps out-of-pocket cost of insulin

Eli Lilly is a global corporation that actively participates and defends its role in the insulin oligopoly. Eli Lilly isn't capping the cost of jack squat. Eli Lilly was forced to stop exploiting patients－ that's the story, and the headline. Do better, editors.

Also - Gov Newsome announced California will be manufacturing their own insulin and selling it at cost (90% below brand name insulin) to allwho need it. Eli Lilly is threatened with total loss of market share amongst the non-Medicare buyers of insulin.
