I Dread October

Come October we’re likely to see more of two things than we can possibly stand and I don’t mean premiers of the network TV fall lineup. We’ll see political ads and Humira ads. Humira’s patent expires in December.

    Wonder when the various concerned essayists will restart the generics bad, brand name better line. Seems to have gone away when Obama endorsed generics as part of Obamacare.

    Crestor is going generic too, and although I don’t notice many commercials for it I assume the ramifications for pharm companies are huge – the money in statins is ginormous. Though it’s not universal I know of some prominent cardiologists who believe that rosuvastatin is superior to the others but they’re hamstrung by insurance companies not covering it.

    When you only stream and don’t watch live TV at all, except for sports, then you see none of that crap. That’s 1/2 the reason we cut the cord long ago.

    You dread October, I dread a long, hot summer. Orlando and Dallas are only the appetizers.
