President Biden spoke about insulin to crowd of supporters Tuesday in Florida

President Joe Biden told a room full of supporters in Hallandale Beach, Florida, on Tuesday that he spoke with the man who "invented" insulin and that it was never patented because it was supposed to be available to everyone.

The president was giving a speech to gain support for the Democratic Party going into the midterms.

"How many of you know somebody with diabetes and needs insulin?" Biden asked the crowd. "Do you know how much it costs to make that insulin drug for diabetes? … It was invented by a man who did not patent it because he wanted it available for everyone. I spoke to him, OK?"

If it was so easy to make there'd be other companies making it. There would also be plenty of generic types.

There’s something about the patent that allows for synthetic insulin to be tweaked and adjusted. Which therefore dodges the whole generic thing, because legally it’s always slightly different.
