Just coming here to say that most of the world (outside the USA) does not need Ozempic at all to be healthy. So maybe this medication is really a luxury.

  A disease is a disease regardless..
  Telling people to eat less or move more doesn't work and hasn't worked.

I'm not in the US and know plenty of people that use it. It's also maybe a 1/5 of the US cost, even accounting for the exchange rate.

In France it's reimbursed but only if you are diabetic. I'm not sure people talking about it here are diabetic.
