It is cool but…as of right now isn’t insulin dirt cheap to make anyways? They just mark it up a few thousand percent?
Cheap to make, super expensive when sold. Just look at USA. Recently increased in price over 1000%, because fuck everyone we need more money. Some people pay more than 200$ per bottle. So any source that can produce insulin cheaply is bound to drop prices these gouging assholes are setting.
These new guys will sell it for $199 a bottle. And then Big Pharma will give them an offer they can’t refuse, and the company gets merged into a megacorporation or dissolved
Entirely a possibility.
So a single cow is able to produce enough insulin in a day for thousands of diabetics for a month? Astonishing.
And with current manufacturing methods it costs a whopping 20c to make a vial
oh lol I was reading the headline incorrect
had a weird/interesting linguistic huh? moment till I read the article lol

Thanks. Headline makes it seem like some new way to keep cows perpetually producing milk by giving them insulin.
Boomalopes, here we come!
Yeah!!!
Now I want strawberry milk cows!
I dont think that’s worth it? No need to mess with cows like that
It sounds like the GM cow is otherwise healthy and normal, not suffering.
If you mean messing with the species’ genetics, with all due respect to cows, that ship sailed long ago.
