How does the pharmaceutical industry make money with covid? A covid vaccine shot costs about $25....... Once you are fully vaccinated 2 shots, $50, and even a booster totalling $75, your chance of requiring hospitalization and intensive care is reduced by over 90%....... The total cost for intensive care to treat covid in Canada is over $50,000..... Much of that on medicine The cost full hospitalization treatment, without intensive care, for covid is $23,000..... Much of that is on medicine Tell me again..... How the pharmaceutical industry is profiting from selling vaccines So would the pharmaceutical industry prefer you to get vaccinated or unvaccinated?
