The monthly prices of Ozempic and injectable Wegovy — two of the highest-spend drugs in the U.S. — falls from $1,028 and $1,349, respectively, to an average price of $350 and https://t.co/ARBmJQwgj1” (posted February 7).

God bless the 1980 Olympic Team.

God bless our exceptional nation. https://t.co/YNGe79sK9J” (posted February 7).
