That story was complete garbage. After reading it, I don't know much about what the executive orders actually are. Not a single quote from the orders or a link so we can read the orders ourselves. We have summaries of the orders, but given that the whole article feels more like an opinion piece pretending it's a new article, I don't know if I can trust that the summary is accurate.
One of the experts spends a whole paragraph telling us that the orders are meaningless, without saying why they are meaningless. There is some evidence given for why they might not work, but even the expert doesn't say they won't but that they might not.
In fact, I could sum up the article this way:
The first three executive orders may or may not be beneficial for drug price reduction.
The other executive order has not been issued and is a way to force the pharmaceutical industry to negotiate new drug prices. This might or might not be beneficial for drug price reduction.
