India Grapples with Semaglutide Costs and Calcutta Trams

India Grapples with Semaglutide Costs and Calcutta Trams

Imagine seeing Saturn's rings almost disappear - a rare, beautiful event!

Meanwhile, India faces a tough health situation: many people are both undernourished and dealing with obesity.

A new drug called semaglutide helps with weight loss and sugar control, but it's very expensive.

Some people worry that this drug is too pricey and that focusing only on it may ignore cheaper and more accessible ways to stay healthy, like eating well and exercising.

At the same time, the city of Calcutta is removing its tram system, which some people think is a mistake because trams are good for the environment and a part of the city's history.
