Fact-check: Insulin prices 2021 – is Biden raising costs on uninsured?

PolitiFact s ruling: Mostly False Here s why: A Republican running for U.S. Senate in North Carolina says Joe Biden is already raising drug prices for some of the most vulnerable Americans. Former Congressman Mark Walker hopes to replace U.S. Sen. Richard Burr, who won’t seek reelection next year. Two days after Biden’s inauguration, Walker took aim at the new Democratic president.

He linked to this story by Modern Healthcare. Walker’s claim is similar to others that have been fact-checked by PolitiFact and other media.
