Fivepointno:
I’ve noticed a lot of girls looking like deflated beach balls lately. It all comes down to insurance, within 2 years there will be almost zero middle class obese girls.
Okay, now you are being very silly. And also very gross for saying that. It's super objectifying, and a handful of women (I hope you don't mean girls because that's pedophilia) does a trend not make.
Some points:
Not every middle class woman is trying to lose weight.
There is a sizable anti-modern medicine community of middle class women who will use natural medicine.
Ozempic and Wegovy can make people feel violent ill. And there's a growing voice warning people that some will face irreparable health issues.
Both medications are injections. People would rather take a pill than stab themselves.
While Ozempic and Wegovy (the most popular weight loss medications) can be covered under insurance, it's not always the case. For example, Medicare (it's possible to be on Medicare as a young person if you have certain disabilities) does not cover Wegovy at all. At it will not cover Ozempic for off-label use. Tricare can cover Wegovy, but you have to meet certain medical criteria.
Most middle class people get their coverage via their job. And not every plan will cover it. Those that do typically require you to have some obesity related health issue.
If you are fat but not sick, you'll have to pay out of pocket. Ozempic costs about $892 a month. Wegovy can cost about $1,349. There are coupons and manufacturer drug programs that can mitigate the costs. However, the coupons may not reduce the costs very much. As for the programs, not everyone will qualify, and the programs tend to be limited.
Some middle class households can eat these costs. Some can't. Some don't want to. It depends on a lot of things like cost of living and lifestyle.
So, you are being very,
very silly.
