The list prices: $2,202 for Descovy, $2,013 for Apretude, $2,352 for Yeztugo.

The price is also only a hair above Apertude and Descovy, two other brand-name forms of PrEP that are widely covered by insurance.

Girls go through puberty first, which would only narrow the gap.

UPDATE: The Minnesota State Patrol is urging people not to attend todayās "No Kings" demonstrations across the state. The authorities said that fliers for the āNo Kingsā events were found in the vehicle of the suspect, who remains at large.

It begs the question of whether an anti tobacco campaign is smoking shaming, or any attempt to prevent STDs is intrinsically sex shaming.

No, after he said sex was binary, he was summarily cancelled by trans activists who sought to silence him by poisoning the job market for himāquite successfully. He is as qualified to weigh in on the subject as anyone.

Wright has a PhD in evolutionary biology. Sex is binary. Gender transition surgeries & treatments change sex characteristics but not sex. I made no suggestion of what sex segregation policies should be, but that biologāl sex should be part of the discussion www.realityslaststand.com/p/understand...

@jessesingal.com writes that Evan Urquhart predicted of the pod āthat it was going to land somewhere between āterribleā and āheinously evilā.ā . And since then he hasnāt said a word about the pod, which actually was quite supportive of this medical field in many ways
comment in response to

Once the pod dropped on Thursday, Evan said he would be withholding judgment until he listened to it all. Which was odd, since heād just published a screed trashing it that morning.

Funny, because Jamie Reed is furious with Azeen for being what she thinks is too critical of her. And other gender criticals have expressed rage that Azeen didnāt detail the harms of treatment.

That is incorrect. It would seem that it is you who are harboring the enmity in this dynamic.

Yes, the first sentence in ever since one is a lie.

It is you who are jumping to wildly hyperbolic conclusions and using equally hyperbolic rhetoric, not me.

I did not say what those policies should be, but that biological sex is a basis on which people determine such policies, in particular when the biological sex of one person impacts another person of the opposite biological sex.

Those people would have had no need for those surgeries if their biological sex had aligned with their gender identity. The surgeries did not change their underlying biological sex. Most importantly, the surgeries did not create a self-sustaining source of cross-sex hormones.

Yes, she lies in the first sentence of every post about a journalist on there.

All of that is wholly incorrect.

This after she has issued specific calls for sources not to speak to certain reporters she dislikes (eg: me) for their coverage of gender care for kids. She knows very well that these calls of hers to blacklist reporters have been widely viewed and shared and that people listen to her.
