    Statins are already there on a once a day pill. I don’t know how they are for other people, but I have a nuke-it-from-orbit dosage due to genetic issues, and I don’t notice any side effects. A grapefruit might kill me, but I never liked them, anyway. Costco’s out of pocket rate is around $30 for 90 days.

    I’d take gene editing if it were cheap enough, but just speaking for myself, I’m fine without it. Health plans probably aren’t going to make it cheap when the alternative tends to work fine.
