    I found this article after a quick search balanced and informative.

    "To be specific, most of the buck for COVID-19 treatment will stop with insurers and employers, not with consumers."

    I still believe the last paragraph (un-posted) is wishful thinking. I'd post it but the ice would get too thin.

    Until the elections in November, however, we may as well ask a Magic 8 Ball for an answer. My guess is with Biden not much will change. Trump has already shown that even with a majority in both Houses he couldn't end the ACA.
