On the front page of the USA Today this morning was an excellent, but way too short analysis on the varying prices of Tamiflu.
There's really too little information out there to make a well-rounded decision on this, but it seems to appear as if some gouging might be going on during this time of a national health care crisis. Or you know...standard operating procedure.
"We're dealing with a national health epidemic," said Bruce Schneider, of Hart Pharmacy in Wichita whose price was $49. "If I want to sleep at night, I don't think I should be taking advantage of the situation."
And Walgreens is shocked...simply shocked I say.
Walgreens said it would charge $94.49, and Leanne Trela, director of retail clinical services, expressed surprise at lower prices.
