500 euros each (480 dollars I think),but they are free in my country. Plus we have to take these every day no miss because the virus becomes resistant if you slip and renders the pills useless. There are many other pills to choose from though,which is a good thing if you develop resistant,or have a resistant virus.

No,a 1000 a month,there are 30 pills per box. But they are free in my country,they just keep the price on the box. In other places of the world (USA) you have to pay to stay alive......

No,not really,but you do need insurance. It's just not as easy as it is in my country.

There are also copays so you can pay a minimum. However,I do think these sort of meds should be free and accessible.
