Biden: Overturning the ACA Would Mean People Have to Pay to Get the Covid-19 Vaccine

EXCERPT:

BIDEN: “Under the ACA, insurers are required to cover recommended vaccines for free. So overturning the ACA would mean people have to pay to get the Covid-19 vaccine. That’s wrong. Very, very wrong. Unlike Donald Trump, I believe health care isn’t a privilege. I think it’s a right. That’s why as president I’ll protect and build on the ACA by adding a public option that will compete with private plans to expand coverage and lower health care costs across the board. I’ll bring down drug prices by allowing Medicare to negotiate with pharmaceutical companies. I’ll make sure Americans have insurance, those with insurance have access to free Covid-19 vaccine. I’ll direct the federal government to bulk purchase as many doses as necessary of the Covid-19 vaccine so we can provide it free to those who are uninsured, underinsured, or Medicaid eligible."
