Yesterday, the CEO of the drug company that upped the price of Daraprim by 5,000% said they’re going to DROP the price now. It’s used to treat and prevent infections in AIDS, cancer, and malaria patients.
Before his company bought the rights to it, it was $13.50 a pill. And they upped it to 750 BUCKS. Which caused a public outcry, so they’re dropping it back down, but haven’t said how much it’ll cost yet.
Anyway, the CEO’s name is Martin Shkreli, and everyone HATES him. So someone took footage from all the interviews he’s been doing, and edited them so it sounds like he’s plotting to KILL us all and make as much money as he can in the process.
They also photoshopped Dr. Evil’s hand in, so it looks like he’s doing the evil pinky finger thing.
