This one is easy

Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine's original patents expired which means anyone can manufacture generic versions of it.

That would make it way cheaper and available anywhere in the world, not just to countries that can afford it.

Pfizer and moderna would not share their covid patents so many African countries and third world countries who couldn't afford the new covid vax had to rely on the good will of Western countries to share their inventory of vaccines.

When all they (Pfizer, moderna) had to do was share the patent, so those countries can make their own and not have to rely on imports.

In the midst of a once in a 100 year global pandemic, big pharma cared more about profits. It's weird ppl haven't stopped defending them.

That post isn't a defense of big pharma. It's actually saying what you said in the previous sentence. That there's no way they would've turned down the profits

House passes bill to codify Trump order to rinse away showerhead regulations

Democrats warn that relaxed standards could lead to higher utility bills and worsen environmental impacts. The bill's prospects in the Senate are uncertain.

The Republican-controlled House on Tuesday advanced legislation aimed at fulfilling President Donald Trump’s long-running desire to “make showers great again” by voting to loosen federal efficiency standards for showerheads.

The bill — dubbed the Saving Homeowners from Overregulation With Exceptional Rinsing, or Shower ACT — passed 226-197, with 11 Democrats crossing the aisle in support.

Republicans have argued the measure would wash away unnecessary regulations and allow more water to flow through showerheads. Democrats warn the relaxed standards could soak consumers with higher utility bills and worsen environmental impacts.

“If they want a nozzle that dribbles on their head, well then go get one of those. If you want something that slices an orange, well then go get one of those. That should be your choice as a consumer,” said GOP Rep. Russell Fry, sponsor of the bill.

I'm cool with this. Was annoyed when the faucets didn't have a strong flow to them
