Having said that if he was going 5 days without his inhaler and struggling breathing go the ER, Urgent care.

Shyt GoodRx has the generic for $60

That part...
I use an inhaler too.

Worst case run to that ER get a breathing treatment

And use Good RX

All of this was under Bidens administration yet folks thinking it’s karma for how dude votes. Can’t make it up

Yeah nobody's disputing the fact that the system failed this guy but if it took him 5 days.

He should have went directly to the emergency room. Urgent care at worst and call his insurance and regular Dr like non-stop.

Pharmacist could have easily told him to get that primatene mist inhaler over the counter until the insurance company figures it out

primatene mist doesnt work on asthma. theres a big difference between snot and a lung disease.

Why are people pretending who he voted for matters?

If he was Black, cacs would making racist memes of him, slandering him, etc.

I voted for Kamala, I don't care about these cocksuckers anymore

The policy change happened in 2023. It’s clearly stated in the article but the first few posters automatically jumped into coli political war mode just based off the title

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

My heart goes out to him but I can't do anything for him. If a million black men pleaded with congress to lower medication costs it would fall on deaf ears.

If a million people can unite for a single purpose, fukk congress, they would have the world’s attention plus the alien overlords
