    Most meds take dollars to make. It ain’t rarity.

      That’s their point. If I need to setup a production facility but there’s only demand for a thousand doses a year, then the long term capital costs are going to drive the unit price up.

      But there’s also greed. Stuff that’s a dollar to make and a thousand dollars to use.
