Oh man is this going to cost alot! A dose of Enbrel costs about $900. If everyone with Alzheimer’s gets one shot per month, that’s $45 million a month or half a billion per year.

What is the current treatment cost? I'd think it would be far more than a half bil.

There no good medical treatment for it, just custodial care which is usually private pay or covered by Medicaid.
