Statement from Mayor Tedford

Statement of Mayor Ken Tedford — March 18, 2020

Your City and County leaders are well-prepared, and we will continue to take the steps necessary to protect our community; being prepared, staying calm with no panic.

I applaud Governor Sisolak for his decision-making and courage during these uncertain and unprecedented times.  I am confident that he has done what he believes is necessary to protect Nevadans from this virus and I encourage everyone to follow his lead.  Let’s do our best to stay home and stop the spread of this virus.  

I know many families may suffer during this very unique time in our history.  Always in Fallon we get through difficult times by relying on family, friends, and faith.  We must continue to do so now, and we will do well as a community.  I am counting on all of you to pull together with a strong positive mindset and we will do great.  We live in a great City in a great County in a great State in a great Country.  Always keep that in mind.  

          Never miss a meeting or community event – keep an eye on the community calendar at https://www.thefallonpost.org/events/ If you like what we’re doing, please support our effort to provide local, independent news and contribute to The Fallon Post, your online news source for all things Fallon.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
