A simple Google search gave me this. https://www.goodrx.com/blog/20-most-expensive-drugs-in-the-usa/

20 drugs that are more than 25k per month.

And many of those are perpetual costs that people have to endure month after month. This Covid drug is presumably for a one time treatment course.

Like I said. Not the worst I have seen.

And I will say again, it should be less. But considering how the market has priced these things before, it would not have surprised me to see higher. Doesn't make it right. Just relatively less wrong.
