This argument illogical. It js high cost so those who need it cannot afford it hence the need for subsidy.

If it is low cost why the hell do you need to subsidise??!!

This govt has lost its ability to think!

Anyway do they ask the same question abt cost  when they buy F35?

That is why you cannot cut minister and top brass pay, but you can fire the lower ranking folks or ask them to work for passion and not complain about low pay... Lol

We paid for higher premiums under

Gan KY 35% in 2021 and lately under OYK 22% 2024

to cover more illness.

Are we scammed again because we will not feel the brunt?

I am thinking, what's the purchase price of the vaccine? I hope it's not like the cost is $20 then the hospitals mark it up by 30 times cos they have to pay for the overheads.

We need true transparency for why it is expensive.

Low cost become high cost due to inflated price then subsidized still make handsome profit.
High cost can't mark much higher so cannot subsidized, it may mae losses .So all these subsidized policy is just to act as though they doing some welfare for the ppl.
Seems like it 😅
