Boots launches £120, 12-minute Covid test
(Click to enlarge)
One hundred and twenty pounds for a test with Boots. Boots, which is still avoiding millions in tax every year. Boots, which charged the NHS £2,000 per pot of hand cream.
Why can't the technology behind a 12-minute test be made available to all of us? For free?
We need all aspects of healthcare out of the hands of these vultures! Workers could run a nationalised pharmaceutical industry on the basis of need and not this extortionate profit.
