12:00 pm
hello, everyone. i'm kate snow. >> and i'm zinhle essamuah. "nbc news daily" starts right now. today, tuesday, may 30th,
12:01 pm
2023. breaking news, break in the case. two people arrested in connection to that memorial day shooting at a popular florida beach. whwhat authoririties just t rev about ththe investigigation. >> closing g the deal.. lawmakerers back in washington rushing to pass a debt ceiling bill. the new deadline now facing congress and how both sides are reacting. also breaking this hour, behind bars, theranos founder elizabeth holmes beginning an 11-year sentence for swindling investors, what she can expect inside the small texas prison she's reporting to. and private practice. what's at stake for some rural doctors who offer a crucial lifeline to communities that would otherwise go unserved? thanks so much for joining us. we begin with breaking news. >> police in florida announcing the arrest of two people in connection to a mass shooting on memorial day. authorities are also searching for these three other people described as persons of interest. police say nine people were shot in the popular beach destination of hollywood, florida. among the victims a 1-year-old
12:02 pm
child. a fight broke out moments before the shots were fired. >> the gun violence archive reports this was 1 of at least 17 mass shootings over the holiday weekend. leading us off guad venegas in hollywood, florida, so, police did give an update. what do we know about the arrests made and the people they're still looking for? >> reporter: zinhle, we know that police arrived quickly after this altercation took place and, of course, that gunfire erupted and they were able to detain a group of individuals, now, earlier today, the mayor spoke about this. they said when they came to detain that group of individuals, two of them were arrested. these two individuals have been arrested because of gun-related charges. they have not been identified as the shooters as of now, we've also been informed overall police recovered five handguns. of those, two were reported stolen, one in texas and one in florida.
12:03 pm
police also say they did detain a person of interest and, of course, they have been speaking to numerous witnesses here yesterday. authorities say there were thousands at hollywood beach yesterday because of the holiday. we could see hundreds running away in those images from the surveillance video. we're going to hear from two witnesses who were here yesterday when it happed. >> i heard like three gunshot sounds and i just seen like a wave of people just running out, like screaming and running out. >> i started to hear five, six shots and everybody started running and i got down on the sand. >> reporter: now, police have shared those three images taken from the surveillance videos of three individuals that they are looking for. it's sort of blurry to see those but they are asking the public who was there if anybody knows them or recognizes those outfits to communicate that to authorities. >> guad, can you tell us about the people who were shot? what are their conditions at
12:04 pm
this point? >> kate, the latest update indicates nine people were struck by gunfire. three have been discharged from the hospital. two other adults are still in the hospital and the four minors are also in the hospital. now, all six of them, the four minors and two adults are in stable condition, kate. >> that's a little bit of good news, guad, thank you. well, city officials in davenport, iowa, say five people remain unaccounted for including two believed to be inside an apartment building that partially collapsed over the weekend. overnight a 52-year-old woman was found alive in the building. you can see her here sticking her head out a window, hours after they switched from rescue to recovery efforts and there's growing outrage the tearing down the building fearing there may be more inside. shaq brewster joins us. they held an emotional press conference on the status of the building and those unaccounted for and right now where do things stand?
12:05 pm
>> reporter: new numbers, five people who are unaccounted for. two people who officials say are likely inside. i spoke with the son of one of those two men, brendan or brandon, rather, he told me bottom line, he wants to know where his father is and that's been a lot of the frustration that members of the community were airing based on the plans that the city had as recently as this morning to demolish this building but officials explained the back and forth and the tension there saying the concern is that, yes, they want to send another search and rescue team in. they want to do a more thorough search but the concern about the condition of that building that they say could really topple at any time and in an uncontrolled way. i want you to listen to the emotion you heard from the fire chief who is part of the team making this actual decision. listen to the emotion and how explained the factors at play here. >> we want to get everybody out and we want to do it right now.
12:06 pm
i apologize that i get upset but there's a lot of things that we have to factor. >> reporter: there is currently no time line for that planned demolition. they're staging the equipment for whenever that can take place and know the humane society has been here trying to do what they can to make sure any pets inside are also able to come out. >> first responders are emotional. obviously the community is, as well. we're hearing from former residents speaking out about the red flagstaffs surrounding this building. a current resident took this video on the screen right now and say that was just a moment before the building actually collapsed and there have been protests you've been covering outside the fenced off area in front of that very building so what are you hearing from the community today? >> reporter: yeah, a lot of questions, a lot of frustration over how we got to this point in the first place and saw video of the cracks that residents talked
12:07 pm
about inside. there was also leaking, also concerns about heating, a lot of complaints that have been associated with this building and that is also what you're hearing in terms of accountable. folks asking what investigation, what an investigation will look like. but you mentioned we heard in that press conference the family member of the other person who is unaccounted for at this point likely inside. listen to how she put it and what she's thinking about as city officials make this decision. >> ryan wouldn't want anyone else to put their lives at risk to unfortunately somebody who probably has not survived. i don't discount that he could be trapped under there miraculously and we've seen miraculous things and our god is good but, you know, we don't want to see any more families lose their lives or anybody else be injured. >> reporter: and that is what
12:08 pm
the officials are thinking about, yes, they know that there are people likely inside. they say any demolition that will be done on whatever the new time line is will be done with dignity to make sure that anyone who inside is recovered in a dignified way. >> yeah, incredibly difficult circumstances there, shaquille brewster, thank you. lawmakers in washington now facing a critical new deadline to pass that deal made over the weekend on the debt ceiling. that bipartisan agreement brokered by president biden and house speaker kevin mccarthy is facing some scrutiny from members of both parties with the u.s. just days away from a potential default. treasury secretary janet yellen now says lawmakers have until june 5th before the nation would begin defaulting on debts. the legislation that would need to pass faces its first major test later today. that's in a house committee. a vote by the entire house could come as soon as tomorrow. let's bring in nbc news capitol hill correspondent ali vitali tracking all of it for us. it's been hour to hour.
12:09 pm
president biden and speaker mccarthy both said they didn't get everything they want in the deal but i know there are liberal democrats and some conservative republicans who don't like it. i guess the question is, could they stop it from passing? >> reporter: well, look, that was always going to be true that you saw the people on the far left and the far right going against what they see in this deal. now, after the weekend deal was announced, we're watching lawmakers come back to town and both air their grievances while also watching leadership on both sides start to whip votes in the direction of this bill. what needs to happen first, though, is that rules committee vote that you mentioned, that's going to be happening in just the next few minutes or at least we expect that to be the kickoff. in the meantime, though, i asked speaker mccarthy about some of the venting that we've been hearing from members on the further right side of his conference. people who say they hate what's in the deal and they're not going to vote for it. when i asked if he had spoken to those people this is part of what the speaker told me, watch. >> not sure what everybody wanted.
12:10 pm
we couldn't get everything we wanted. when the freedom caucus talks about spending back to 2022, the nondefense is back for 2022. veterans get more money and defense gets more money. >> reporter: there you see mccarthy trumpeting some of what he sees as the high points of this. i also think it is important for us to note at this point, kate, mccarthy was probably always going to lose these 30 or 40 members in the house freedom caucus that make up the most conservative side of his conference in the same way that they were also probably not going to get the most progressive members on the democratic side. there's till a lot of room in the middle there, though, that's likely how this will pass the house then, of course, we pivot to the senate because they have to do their work too. >> not over until it's over. thank you. well, in financial news "the little mermaid" scored big at the box office and state farm is no longer there specifically for people in california. >> morgan brennan joins us more.
12:11 pm
hi, morgan. >> hi. state farm will stop accepting new homeowners insurance applications in california. the company cited rapidly growing catastrophe risks like wildfires, quote, historic increases in construction costs and challenging reinsurance market. tesla shares on the rise after elon musk met with china's foreign minister and signaled further expansion in that country. a statement from the chinese foreign ministry said tesla opposes decoupling and is willing to continue its work in china. this comes amid, of course, continued tensions between china and the u.s. over technology. and disney's "little mermaid" won the weekend box office, the fifth biggest domestic memorial day opening in history. the live action remake took home $118 million across the u.s. however, the film hasn't turned a profit yet as it cost disney nearly $250 million to make. but, guys, a strong start and just to put this in perspective,
12:12 pm
two other animated remakes or i should say live action remakes of animated disney classics have actually fared better, "beauty and the beast" and "the lion king." both before the pandemic. >> i'm sure it'll get there. i contributed to that box office number. it was beautiful. >> you did? >> yes. it was so good. her voice just brings tear. >> there we go. there's your review. >> there's the review. go see it if you haven't. >> i look forward to it. why some small town doctors and doctors in private practice say they are struggling to stay in practice. and what closing shop could mean for their patients. plus, how one major city is planning to address safety concerns on its buses after a terrifying shootout betwe a aen i i have modererate to sesevere crohnhn's diseseas. now, therere's skyryrizi. ♪ t things are e looking upu♪ ♪ i'v've got sympmptom relief♪ ♪ control o of my crohnhn's means evererything to o me. ♪ ♪ ♪ contrtrol is evererything to ♪ fefeel significant symymptom rerelief with h skyrizi,

12:15 pm
a trial is now under way for the man accused in a deadly attack on the jewish community in pittsburgh, pennsylvania. you'll probably remember the shooting at the tree of life synagogue in 2018. police say robert bowers entered and began shooting worshippers inside. 11 died that day. bowers faces 63 federal charges including 11 hate-related counts, some of which are punishable by death. he has pleaded not guilty. nbc news correspondent george solis is following the tile for us outside the courthouse in pittsburgh today. george, opening statements were this morning. some witnesses were starting to be called.
12:16 pm
what have we heard so far? >> reporter: what we heard is pretty emotional testimony. probably among the most chilling would be from the dispatcher who took some of the first 911 calls from inside of the church. you can hear some of the gunshots in some of those calls from what we're told from our team in the courthouse. you hear the victims describing they had been shot trying to identify where the shoots were coming from. we also heard from one of the rabbis there describing the layout of the church and how three different groups of worshippers make up the tree of life synagogue and all told you have a number of people just listening in including robert bowers who we're told is listening to all of this testimony from the witnesses the prosecution has brought during opening arguments and laid out the case pretty clearly and took into account everything that led up to the shooting including the moments leading up to it. basically saying that this man, the accused shooter went in there fully knowing what he was
12:17 pm
going to do, went out there, shot the worshippers and also engaged with police up to the moment he was detained. the defense trying to paint a picture of a man they say was a member of this community and was troubled. they aren't debating the facts of the case as we know, the facts are pretty cut and dried. what this case ultimately becomes about, kate, whether or not the accused shooter will get the death penalty. >> george olis, thank you. the newly released surveillance video showing a passenger pulling a gun on the bus driver and the bus driver pulling out his own firearm and the two exchanged gunfire. ellison barber reports. we want to warn you the footage is graphic. >> reporter: shocking new video shows the dramatic shootout between a north carolina bus driver and a passenger. leaving the driver out of a job and the passenger facing multiple felony charges.
12:18 pm
officials from the charlotte area transit system saying it occurred earlier this month after the passenger omarri tobias asked the driver to make an unscheduled stop. when the driver david fullard refused tobias can be heard talking back. that's when tobias is seen pulling a gun and fullard reveals his own. the bus drives off the road. two other passengers manage to escape the shootout without any injuries by running to the back of the bus. >> possession of a firearm or other weapon is prohibited by the company's workplace violence policy while on duty or on company property. we don't want anyone possessing weapons on our vehicles. >> drivers have been calling for heightened safety protocols
12:19 pm
within the system for many years now. >> reporter: his attorney telling nbc news the driver felt the need to arm himself following other violent incidents involving bus drivers in the area. including the death of a bus driver named ethan rivera during a road rage incident last year. the suspect in this case arrested. in a press conference officials acknowledging their transit system is not immune to violent incidents but say 99% of trips happen without a problem and that the budget for security will increase by 50% starting in july. >> what we are doing provides safety for the passengers and for the riders. i think that this random violence or senseless violence is pervasive throughout the community. >> reporter: the passenger tobias is now in custody with $250,000 bond facing three separate charges including assault with a deadly weapon, inflicting serious injuries.
12:20 pm
efforts to reach him were unsuccessful. as for the driver he has not been charged and his attorney says he doesn't expect any to be brought against him. he says they will fight to make sure fullard gets any benefits he's entitled to after his firing. >> the key is that we hope for a good result from mr. fullard but also hope for changes within the system that will provide protection to these drivers. >> reporter: ellison barber, nbc news. coming up what we're learning about what life behind bars will look like for theranos founder elizabeth holmes. you're watching "nbc news daily." >> we're streaming free 24/7 on (man) what if f my type 2 2 diabets takes ovover?

12:24 pm
after a few embraces, she walked away to begin serving that 11-year sentence. holmes was found guilty on four counts of defrauding investors. she is now 39 years old. she dropped out of stanford at 19 to find theranos which was valued at more than $9 billion. the company promised blood testing technology that could deliver hundreds of test results from a single drop of blood. only delivered flawed results for things like hiv, cancer and miscarriage using existing technology, not theranos technology. holmes and her former romantic partner were ordered to pay $450 million in restitution. legal analysts say that usually doesn't happen. investors won't see any money likely. he is serving his sentence. she will be behind bars for 11. some women in silicon valley say they are paying the price.
12:25 pm
>> you wish it was about the fundamentals. it's not. unfortunately, you have to know going in that this is what the game is going to be. you have to play harder. elizabeth holmes made it 20 times harder. we will play that much harder. >> reporter: things will be lard -- harder for holmes as well. her day will start at 6:00 in the morning and will include work for as little as 12 cents an hour. she will be allowed a daily phone call home and a weekly visit in which she will be allowed to hold her children. she can appeal her conviction. she will likely now serve the full 11 years. there's little comfort for her on day one of what will be more than 4,000 days in prison. >> thank you. here are other stories.

the 19-year-old wanted to end democracy in the united states and in a court filing prosecutors wrote he kept a journal that contained a coup speech he planned to give had he taken over the government. jury selection set to begin in the case of the sheriff's deputy charged with filing to confront the gunman in the 2018 school scooting sh parkland florida. scott peterson, they allege, could have prevented six murders had he gone into the building and confronted the killer. peterson says he is, quote, looking forward to his trial because he wants, quote, the truth to come out. so that the public and victims' families will know he did everything he could during that mass shooting. and take a look at this. ralph yarl who was shot in the head and arm after ringing the wrong doorbell walked at a brain injury awareness month in his first major public appearance, he walked with family, friends and other brain injury survivors at a yearly memorial day race in kansas city, missouri. well, there is an urgent

claims he was hit and injured as well. they were driving a black 2013 jeep wrangler and at last word they are still not being heard from. one thing that keeps getting brought up are the similarities to the gabby petito case which, of course, included a police encounter as they made that trip two years ago, gabby with her boyfriend. we spoke with both families and both saying they have not heard from them and just both family want the couple to be found. >> yeah. >> such disturbing details but hopefully resolves soon. >> steven, thank you. breaking news out of texas, that's where elizabeth holmes, the disgraced founder of silicon valley start-up theranos is now in a federal prison found guilty of fraud and conspiracy after she lied to investors about the work her company was doing. cnbc reporter yasmin corum has been following it. she tried to delay this day. >> she did. she fought it from the very
12:34 pm
beginning. convicted a year and a half ago and managed to stay out of prison for a very long time. a federal appeals court rejected her request to remain free while she appeals her conviction. today as we walked through those doors at this minimum security prison in brian, texas, she's now known as an inmate. this place is nicknamed club fed, martha stewart served here and jen shah is serving her sentence at the same facility. >> i know holmes and her former business partner were ordered to pay over $400 million to dozens of investors yet holmes says she does not even have money to pay her attorneys right now so is there any hope people will get some of their money back? >> legal experts tell me there is very little chance any of that will be paid back. as you mentioned her and her co-conspirator sunny balwani

ordered to pay over $450 million in restitution. her legal team is estimated to have cost over $30 million and she has said repeatedly she just doesn't have the money. she's going to serve her full sentence. typically at a federal prison they serve about 85% of their time. she'll get about 15% of credit for good time. so she's been -- she's been sentenced to 11 years, she will serve close to ten years. >> cnbc's yasmine khorram, thank you for that. appearing in iowa today, ron desantis is starting a busy week that will take him to 12 cities as he tries to draw a contrast between himself and former president trump. vaughn hillyard joins us now. what can we expect from him out on the campaign trail? >> reporter: this is stop number one. after that online launch last week, this for ron desantis here tonight is going to be the first
12:36 pm
big indication of his message from a campaign stage. he has eight months until the iowa caucus to go and meet iowans that will get the first crack of selecting the gop nominee. tonight he is going to a church where he will be holding this rally just outside of des moines, there is going to be a contingency of pastors on hand. this is for him not only to introduce himself and his own biography but begin to tie to lay out contrast to the front-runner donald trump as well as this field that is ever growing, kate. >> well, speaking of that, how does he differentiate because there are quite a few players in the field now already. how will he make himself appeal to voters? >> reporter: he's in a sturdy second place. let's be clear. when you look at the polling over the last months including a new poll that came out just today, donald trump continues to have a grip among the republican electorate but ron desantis is within striking distance. and this is where the contrast of how these two campaigns is

going to be key. donald trump, for instance, he's flying into iowa tomorrow. he'll be there for about 24 hours focusing his time in des moines. this is sort of the way donald trump campaigned in 2015, 2016 as well where he stops in a city, flies back either to his club in new jersey or in florida. in the case of ron desantis, you know, many of the folks around him, his campaign allies are those that came from ted cruz's presidential campaign. you recall's recall eight years ago ted cruz went to all 99 counties really hitting the pavement and as you saw from that list of cities you put out for ron desantis in his first trip to iowa as a presidential candidate, he's going to be hitting five cities already and so, you know, an ally of ron desantis tells me he is grind this out. he has eight months to do it and he's going to meet as many iowans as he can to chip into the lead that donald trump presently holes. >> thanks, vaughn. we're following breaking news out of georgia at this hour. the carter center says former first lady rosalynn carter has been diagnosed with dementia.
12:38 pm
mrs. carter has long worked to destigmatize issues surrounding mental health and advocates for caregivers establishing the rosalynn carter institute for caregivers in 1987. blayne alexander is in atlanta for us. what else do we know about mrs. carter's health and why this disclosure is so important. >> reporter: i think that's really what is remarkable about this, zinhle, the fact that they are choosing to make this health condition public essentially to further her work in trying to destigmatize mental health and made it public because they were hoping it would spark important conversations around kitchen dinner tables or around doctors' offices really talking about this and kind of putting it at the forefront of everyone's mind. we know she is 95 years old. we know that she's someone who, yes, of course, spent four years in the white house alongside her husband and took an active role in that administration, sometimes attending cabinet meetings but also know so much of her legacy is going to be looking at what has been
12:39 pm
important to her after the white house year, after those years in washington, of course, mental health, working alongside her husband on their humanitarian causes and, of course, their work at the carter center. we spoke with the ceo of the carter center, pagerduty alexander about what her legacy will be. here's what she had to say this past hour. >> his belief in her passion on mental health issues and making sure that people really -- their human rights were afforded the ability to have these issues addressed was part of the love story, the fact that the two of them did everything together in terms of their work after the white house was an enduring legacy. >> they are truly each other's partners in life. you can't talk about her legacy, the carter legacy without talking about their love story. they are two people who have known each other since kindergarten. somebody who are set to celebrate their 77th wedding anniversary in july so certainly truly a compelling story when
12:40 pm
you talk about them. >> absolutely. 77 years, that's no small feat and, blayne, i know she's living at home with president carter, now 98. entered home hospice care and what's the latest on his health? >> reporter: we've been watching them closely because of that announcement. he will not seek any more medical care. he wants to live the remainder of his days at his home in plains, georgia, the home where he and rosalynn have lived for decades and know according to his grandson who spoke with the associated press he's still very much in touch with what's going on in the world and gets regular updates from the carter center and update him on one of his life passions to eradicate guinea worm and watching all the tributes taking place in the public forum and grateful for those and enjoys the occasional cup of peanut butter ice cream. when why talk about the remainder of their days about their legacy, yes, it's
12:41 pm
disheartening and troubling to hear about the health update but the span of their lives, former president carter is the longest living u.s. president in the country's history at 98 so an incredible legacy on both their parts. >> absolutely, quite the legacy and hopefully more ice cream to come, blayne alexander, thank you. coming up, why some doctors with small practices say they're willing to make big sacrifices to care for their patients. you're watching "nbc news daily." but first time for today's daily snapshot. love this. reigning american league mvp aaron judge, look at him go known for hitting home runs, last night he made this picture perfect home run robbery on a ball hit by heshdz. >> he blasted two of his own becoming the first to hit multiple home runs and rob a homer in the same game since he did it last year and beat the

12:45 pm
>> reporter: for jennifer this place has always been home. she spent time at the small practice her dad ran for 31 years. >> i saw that he was doing something special for people and connecting with people on a very personal level. >> i'm just going to keep you alive forever. >> reporter: 17 years after graduating from medical school dr. jen as some of her patients call her is now running the family clinic and is one of the only doctors in town. >> i thought about just being able to take care of people who took care of me when i was growing up and that was really kind of what made the difference in deciding where to go. >> reporter: her patients more like family and her practice a lifeline for many in her community. >> dr. jen has been multigenerational for my family. >> if you didn't have dr. jen, where would you go? >> i was seeing someone in tulsa, so that would mean two hours. >> two-hour drive? >> yes. >> reporter: for many private doctors across the country that close, personal bond with
12:46 pm
patients is what keeps their practice going. this doctor is a pain doctor in a small suburb in new york's hudson valley north of new york city. >> any pain, you let me know. >> the wife and everything -- >> she knows about your family. >> yeah. >> not like you're just a number going in and out. >> reporter: sharma sees anywhere from 10 to 20 patients a day but the financial burden of running her own business is taking a toll. >> i am hr, i'm the office manager. i'm the administrator and i'm the doctor. >> reporter: and some insurance companies are paying her less. you're not what people may be thinking of when they think of a doctor driving a fancy car, making a lot of money. >> yeah, that's definitely not me. there are some injections that i perform and we get $54. we spend more on a mani-pedi.
12:47 pm
>> how do you make ends meet? >> i don't take vacations. i'm the only doctor here. if i had to pay another provider, i might as well close shop. >> reporter: the number of doctors who work in private practice is on the decline, now around 49% down from 54% in 2018. and according to a recent analysis, nearly 70% of all doctors are either employed by a hospital or a corporation. experts point to an uneven playing field compared to a big medical group, small practices have little to no bargaining power with insurance companies, private doctors often make a fraction of the salary for the same kind of work at a hospital. but sharma thinks joining a larger network could compromise patient care. >> when you find a good doctor, it is, it's kind of emotional because you place your trust in them. >> i love my patients, i feel that when they leave here, they're happier than when they entered my office and if i can do that, hey, i think i'm doing
12:48 pm
a great job. >> reporter: back in kansas, dr. jen is pushing for more visibility. she's banded together with other private doctors in the area sharing resources and bargaining with insurance providers as a group. mckennie works at the university of kansas teaching and recruiting students into rural medicine. a job she says is incredibly rewarding. >> you know, i have a long road ahead and, yeah, no plans to go anywhere soon. >> dr. sharma was saying she really wants policymakers in washington to think about this and try to make it a little easier to be in private practice. democratic senator elizabeth warren has been vocal about issue about big companies buying out small practices and wrote a letter saying she's concerned and they need to take a closer look at some deals because it could put in her words patient health at risk. >> it's so relevant. so many of our doctors are taken for granted. >> i still remember our hometown
12:49 pm
doctor. >> yes. can't take them for granted. well, ahead this summer we wanted to take a closer look at a deadly and often unknown risk to swimmers. >> called shallow water blackout or a sudden loss of consciousness underwater. it's often caused when swimmers hold their breath for too long. exercise can lower a swimmer's carbon dioxide level so when oxygen is used up sometimes they pass out. >> steve patterson spoke to one woman who experienced it firsthand after her husband, an experienced swimmer, went free diving and never came back. it was only after his death she found out about shallow water blackout. >> i can tell you firsthand, it's real, it happens, and it's horrific. he would talk about how many times he touched the wall on one breath and something he was very proud of, and he knew that he could push those limits, but, you know, we didn't know about shallow water blackout so can't push through that.
12:50 pm
>> oh, the family is speaking out hoping their story will spread awareness and save other families what they've been through. the lucien is education and insuring that both swimmers and coaches are aware of the risks. i have to say i have a swimmer, a kid who is a swimmer and i did not know about this so they just did their job by raising awareness for all of us. >> knowledge is key especially with something like this and in the summer season where so many will hit the water. >> yeah, so i guess don't hold your breath for too long is the point, right? >> steve, thank you so much for that. there is much more news ahead. >> you're watching "nbc news daily." my a1c wasas up here;; now, i it's down w with rybels. his a1c? itit's down wiwith rybelsusu. my d doctor toldld me rybelsl® lowered d a1c betterer than a a leading b branded pil and d that peopople taking g rybelsus® lost morore weight..
